Length sensing and control of a Michelson interferometer with Power Recycling and Twin Signal Recycling cavities

Christian Gräf, André Thüring, Henning Vahlbruch +2

The techniques of power recycling and signal recycling have proven as key concepts to increase the sensitivity of large-scale gravitational wave detectors by independent resonant e…

Implications For The Origin Of GRB 051103 From LIGO Observations

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +568

We present the results of a LIGO search for gravitational waves (GWs) associated with GRB 051103, a short-duration hard-spectrum gamma-ray burst (GRB) whose electromagnetically det…

The critical Kerr non-linear optical cavity in the presence of internal loss and driving noise

Andre Thuering, Roman Schnabel

We theoretically analyze the noise transformation of a high power continuouswave light field that is reflected off a critical Kerr non-linear cavity (KNLC). Our investigations are…

First search for gravitational waves from the youngest known neutron star

LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +537

We present a search for periodic gravitational waves from the neutron star in the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A. The search coherently analyzes data in a 12-day interval taken fro…
