Adaptive algorithms for low-latency cancellation of seismic Newtonian-noise at the Virgo gravitational-wave detector

Soumen Koley, Jan Harms, Annalisa Allocca +23

A system was recently implemented in the Virgo detector to cancel noise in its data produced by seismic waves directly coupling with the suspended test masses through gravitational…

Design and implementation of a seismic Newtonian-noise cancellation system for the Virgo gravitational-wave detector

Soumen Koley, Jan Harms, Annalisa Allocca +23

Terrestrial gravity perturbations caused by seismic fields produce the so-called Newtonian noise in gravitational-wave detectors, which is predicted to limit their sensitivity in t…
