Quantum Metrology for Gravitational Wave Astronomy

Roman Schnabel, Nergis Mavalvala, David E. McClelland +1

Einstein's General Theory of Relativity predicts that accelerating mass distributions produce gravitational radiation, analogous to electromagnetic radiation from accelerating char…

Detection of 15 dB Squeezed States of Light and their Application for the Absolute Calibration of Photoelectric Quantum Efficiency

Henning Vahlbruch, Moritz Mehmet, Karsten Danzmann +1

Squeezed states of light belong to the most prominent nonclassical resources. They have compelling applications in metrology, which has been demonstrated by their routine exploitat…

Macroscopic quantum mechanics in gravitational-wave observatories and beyond

Roman Schnabel, Mikhail Korobko

The existence of quantum correlations affects both microscopic and macroscopic systems. On macroscopic systems they are difficult to observe and usually irrelevant for the system's…

The solution to the "Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox"

Roman Schnabel

In 1935, Albert Einstein, Boris Podolsky, and Nathan Rosen ('EPR') reported on a thought experiment that they believed showed that quantum theory provided an incomplete description…

Multi-step two-copy distillation of squeezed states via two photon subtraction

Stephan Grebien, Julian Goettsch, Boris Hage +2

Squeezed states of light have been improving the sensitivity of gravitational-wave observatories and are nonclassical resources of quantum cryptography and envisioned photonic quan…

Point Absorber Limits to Future Gravitational-Wave Detectors

W. Jia, H. Yamamoto, K. Kuns +198

High-quality optical resonant cavities require low optical loss, typically on the scale of parts per million. However, unintended micron-scale contaminants on the resonator mirrors…
