Creation of a quantum oscillator by classical control
Stefan Danilishin, Helge Müller-Ebhardt, Henning Rehbein +7
As a pure quantum state is being approached via linear feedback, and the occupation number approaches and eventually goes below unity, optimal control becomes crucial. We obtain th…
Optimal Light Beams and Mirror Shapes for Future LIGO Interferometers
Mihai Bondarescu, Oleg Kogan, Yanbei Chen
We report the results of a recent search for the lowest value of thermal noise that can be achieved in LIGO by changing the shape of mirrors, while fixing the mirror radius and mai…
Local readout enhancement for detuned signal-recycling interferometers
Henning Rehbein, Helge Mueller-Ebhardt, Kentaro Somiya +4
Motivated by the optical-bar scheme of Braginsky, Gorodetsky and Khalili, we propose to add to a high power detuned signal-recycling interferometer a local readout scheme which mea…
Entanglement of macroscopic test masses and the Standard Quantum Limit in laser interferometry
Helge Mueller-Ebhardt, Henning Rehbein, Roman Schnabel +2
We show that the generation of entanglement of two heavily macroscopic mirrors with masses of up to several kilograms are feasible with state of the art techniques of high-precisio…
