Method comparison for simulating non-Gaussian Beams and Diffraction for Precision Interferometry

Mengyuan Zhao, Yazheng Tao, Kevin Weber +4

In the context of simulating precision laser interferometers, we compare via several examples two wavefront decomposition methods: the Mode Expansion Method (MEM) and the Gaussian…

Non-geometric tilt-to-length coupling in precision interferometry: mechanisms and analytical descriptions

Marie-Sophie Hartig, Sönke Schuster, Gerhard Heinzel +1

This paper is the second in a set of two investigating tilt-to-length (TTL) coupling. TTL describes the cross-coupling of angular or translational jitter into an interferometric ph…

Geometric tilt-to-length coupling in precision interferometry: mechanisms and analytical descriptions

Marie-Sophie Hartig, Sönke Schuster, Gudrun Wanner

Tilt-to-length coupling is a technical term for the cross-coupling of angular or lateral jitter into an interferometric phase signal. It is an important noise source in precision i…

Optical suppression of tilt-to-length coupling in the LISA long-arm interferometer

M Chwalla, K Danzmann, M Dovale Álvarez +15

The arm length and the isolation in space enable LISA to probe for signals unattainable on ground, opening a window to the sub-Hz gravitational-wave universe. The coupling of unavo…

Reducing tilt-to-length coupling for the LISA test mass interferometer

M Tröbs, S Schuster, M Lieser +13

Objects sensed by laser interferometers are usually not stable in position or orientation. This angular instability can lead to a coupling of angular tilt to apparent longitudinal…

Design and construction of an optical test bed for LISA imaging systems and tilt-to-length coupling

Michael Chwalla, Karsten Danzmann, Germán Fernández Barranco +12

The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) is a future space-based interferometric gravitational-wave detector consisting of three spacecraft in a triangular configuration. The…
