Prospects for Multimessenger Observations of Thorne-Żytkow Objects
Lindsay DeMarchi, J. R. Sanders, Emily M. Levesque
Thorne-Żytkow objects (TŻOs) are a class of stellar object comprised of a neutron star core surrounded by a large and diffuse envelope. Their exterior appearance is identical to re…
Sensing Optical Cavity Mismatch with a Mode-Converter and Quadrant Photodiode
Fabian Magaña-Sandoval, Thomas Vo, Daniel Vander-Hyde +2
We present a new technique for sensing optical cavity mode mismatch and alignment by using a cylindrical lens mode converting telescope, radio-frequency quadrant photodiodes, and a…
Folding Gravitational-Wave Interferometers
J. R. Sanders, Stefan W. Ballmer
The sensitivity of kilometer-scale terrestrial gravitational wave interferometers is limited by mirror coating thermal noise. We explore the effect of folding the arm cavities of s…
