Fast Control for LIGO Interferometer Lock Acquisition
Masaya Ono, Nathan A. Holand, Radhika Bhatt +4
Gravitational wave observatories are large scale laser interferometers which are held on resonance to facilitate the detection of gravitational waves. Achieving this resonant condi…
Optimized Quantum States for Sensing in the Presence of Loss and Phase Noise
Shruti Maliakal, Zachary Mann, Christopher Wipf +3
Squeezed vacuum lets gravitational-wave detectors and other quantum sensors surpass the standard quantum limit, and is optimal in the loss-limited regime; phase noise breaks this o…
Open Data from LIGO, Virgo, and KAGRA through the Second Part of the Fourth Observing Run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1809
LIGO, Virgo, KAGRA, and GEO 600 form a network of gravitational-wave observatories. Data and analysis results from this network are made publicly available through the Gravitationa…
Squeezing the quantum noise of a gravitational-wave detector below the standard quantum limit
Wenxuan Jia, Victoria Xu, Kevin Kuns +168
Precision measurements of space and time, like those made by the detectors of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO), are often confronted with fundamental…
