GEO 600 and the GEO-HF upgrade program: successes and challenges
K. L. Dooley, J. R. Leong, T. Adams +25
The German-British laser-interferometric gravitational wave detector GEO 600 is in its 14th year of operation since its first lock in 2001. After GEO 600 participated in science ru…
Birefringence Measurements on Crystalline Silicon
Christoph Krüger, Daniel Heinert, Alexander Khalaidovski +4
Crystalline silicon has been proposed as a new test mass material in third generation gravitational wave detectors such as the Einstein Telescope (ET). Birefringence can reduce the…
Cost-benefit analysis for commissioning decisions in GEO600
T. Adams, J. R. Leong, J. Slutsky +17
Gravitational wave interferometers are complex instruments, requiring years of commissioning to achieve the required sensitivities for the detection of gravitational waves, of orde…
