Observing and evading quantum back-action on a kilogram-scale oscillator
Begüm Kabagöz, Eric Oelker, Dhruva Ganapathy +203
Continuous quantum displacement measurements are fundamentally limited by a trade-off between readout imprecision and measurement back-action, constrained by the Heisenberg uncerta…
Combined Cavity Alignment and Mode-Mismatch Sensing using RF-QPD Sensors
Mitchell Schiworski, Stefan Ballmer
In this article we describe a scheme for sensing both the mode mismatch and alignment of a cavity which does not require custom sensors and uses only Quadrant Photo-Detectors (QPDs…
You only thermoelastically deform once: Point Absorber Detection in LIGO Test Masses with YOLO
Simon R. Goode, Mitchell Schiworski, Daniel Brown +2
Current and future gravitational-wave observatories rely on large-scale, precision interferometers to detect the gravitational-wave signals. However, microscopic imperfections on t…
Observing the optical modes of parametric instability
Mitchell Schiworski, Vladimir Bossilkov, Carl Blair +4
Parametric Instability (PI) is a phenomenon that results from resonant interactions between optical and acoustic modes of a laser cavity. This is problematic in gravitational wave…
