Nonequilibrium steady state fluctuations in actively cooled resonators
M. Bonaldi, L. Conti, P. De Gregorio +15
We analyze heat and work fluctuations in the gravitational wave detector AURIGA, modeled as a macroscopic electromechanical oscillator in contact with a thermostat and cooled by an…
Feedback cooling of the normal modes of a massive electromechanical system to submillikelvin temperature
A. Vinante, M. Bignotto, M. Bonaldi +13
We apply a feedback cooling technique to simultaneously cool the three electromechanical normal modes of the ton-scale resonant-bar gravitational wave detector AURIGA. The measurin…
First joint Gravitational Waves search by the Auriga-Explorer-Nautilus-Virgo collaboration
Virgo collaboration
We present results of the search for coincident burst excitations over a 24 hours long data set collected by AURIGA, EXPLORER, NAUTILUS and Virgo detectors during September 2005. T…
Upper limits on gravitational waves emission in association with the Dec 27 2004 giant flare of SGR1806-20
L. Baggio, M. Bignotto, M. Bonaldi +20
At the time when the giant flare of SGR1806-20 occurred, the AURIGA "bar" gw detector was on the air with a noise performance close to stationary gaussian. This allows to set relev…
3-mode detection for widening the bandwidth of resonant gravitational wave detectors
L. Baggio, M. Bignotto, M. Bonaldi +16
We have implemented a novel scheme of signal readout for resonant gravitational wave detectors. For the first time, a capacitive resonant transducer has been matched to the signal…
