On the mechanical quality factors of cryogenic test masses from fused silica and crystalline quartz

Anja Schroeter, Ronny Nawrodt, Roman Schnabel +11

Current interferometric gravitational wave detectors (IGWDs) are operated at room temperature with test masses made from fused silica. Fused silica shows very low absorption at the…
