A Spin-Based Pathway to Testing the Quantum Nature of Gravity
Sougato Bose, Anupam Mazumdar, Roger Penrose +52
A key open problem in physics is the correct way to combine gravity (described by general relativity) with everything else (described by quantum mechanics). This problem suggests t…
Multiwavelength study of extreme variability in LEDA 1154204: A changing-look event in a type 1.9 Seyfert
T. Saha, A. Markowitz, D. Homan +16
Context. Multiwavelength studies of transients in actively accreting supermassive black holes have revealed that large-amplitude variability is frequently linked to significant cha…
Silicon emissivity as a function of temperature
Marcio Constancio, Rana X. Adhikari, Odylio D. Aguiar +4
In this paper we present the temperature-dependent emissivity of a silicon sample, estimated from its cool-down curve in a constant low temperature environment ( 82K). The…
A Cryogenic Silicon Interferometer for Gravitational-wave Detection
Rana X Adhikari, Odylio Aguiar, Koji Arai +108
The detection of gravitational waves from compact binary mergers by LIGO has opened the era of gravitational wave astronomy, revealing a previously hidden side of the cosmos. To ma…
A phase-sensitive optomechanical amplifier for quantum noise reduction in laser interferometers
Yuntao Bai, Gautam Venugopalan, Kevin Kuns +5
The sensitivity of future gravitational wave interferometers is expected to be limited through-out the detection band by quantum vacuum fluctuations, which can be reduced by quantu…
The US Program in Ground-Based Gravitational Wave Science: Contribution from the LIGO Laboratory
David Reitze, Rich Abbott, Carl Adams +181
Recent gravitational-wave observations from the LIGO and Virgo observatories have brought a sense of great excitement to scientists and citizens the world over. Since September 201…
