Precise Measurement of Laser Power using an Optomechanical System

Kazuhiro Agatsuma, Daniel Friedrich, Stefan Ballmer +4

This paper shows a novel method to precisely measure the laser power using an optomechanical system. By measuring a mirror displacement caused by the reflection of an amplitude mod…

Beating the spin-down limit on gravitational wave emission from the Vela pulsar

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Abadie +747

We present direct upper limits on continuous gravitational wave emission from the Vela pulsar using data from the Virgo detector's second science run. These upper limits have been…

A search for gravitational waves associated with the August 2006 timing glitch of the Vela pulsar

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +499

The physical mechanisms responsible for pulsar timing glitches are thought to excite quasi-normal mode oscillations in their parent neutron star that couple to gravitational wave e…

Search for a stochastic background of 100-MHz gravitational waves with laser interferometers

Tomotada Akutsu, Seiji Kawamura, Atsushi Nishizawa +11

This letter reports the results of a search for a stochastic background of gravitational waves (GW) at 100 MHz by laser interferometry. We have developed a GW detector, which is a…

Optimal Location of Two Laser-interferometric Detectors for Gravitational Wave Backgrounds at 100 MHz

Atsushi Nishizawa, Seiji Kawamura, Tomotada Akutsu +8

Recently, observational searches for gravitational wave background (GWB) have been developed and given constraints on the energy density of GWB in a broad range of frequencies. The…
