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…
Numerical Simulations of Oscillating Soliton Stars: Excited States in Spherical Symmetry and Ground State Evolutions in 3D
Jayashree Balakrishna, Ruxandra Bondarescu, Gregory Daues +1
Excited state soliton stars are studied numerically for the first time. The stability of spherically symmetric S-branch excited state oscillatons under radial perturbations is inve…
Finite Mirror Effects in Advanced Interferometric Gravitational Wave Detectors
Andrew P. Lundgren, Ruxandra Bondarescu, David Tsang +1
Thermal noise is expected to be the dominant source of noise in the most sensitive frequency band of second generation ground based gravitational wave detectors. Reshaping the beam…
