Suppression of quantum-radiation-pressure noise in an optical spring
W. Zach Korth, Haixing Miao, Thomas Corbitt +3
Recent advances in micro- and nanofabrication techniques have led to corresponding improvement in the performance of optomechanical systems, which provide a promising avenue toward…
A New Bound on Excess Frequency Noise in Second Harmonic Generation in PPKTP at the 10^-19 Level
David Yeaton-Massey, Rana X. Adhikari
We report a bound on the relative frequency fluctuations in nonlinear second harmonic generation. A 1064nm Nd:YAG laser is used to read out the phase of a Mach-Zehnder interferomet…
Einstein@Home all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in LIGO S5 data
J. Aasi, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +794
This paper presents results of an all-sky searches for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency range [50, 1190] Hz and with frequency derivative ranges of [-2 x 10^-9, 1.1 x…
Brownian Thermal Noise in Multilayer Coated Mirrors
Ting Hong, Huan Yang, Eric K. Gustafson +2
We analyze the Brownian thermal noise of a multi-layer dielectric coating, used in high-precision optical measurements including interferometric gravitational-wave detectors. We as…
A Technique for In-situ Measurement of Free Spectral Range and Transverse Mode Spacing of Optical Cavities
Alberto Stochino, Koji Arai, Rana X. Adhikari
Length and g-factor are fundamental parameters that characterize optical cavities. We developed a technique to measure these parameters in-situ by determining the frequency spacing…
Subtraction of Newtonian Noise Using Optimized Sensor Arrays
Jennifer C. Driggers, Jan Harms, Rana X. Adhikari
Fluctuations in the local Newtonian gravitational field present a limit to high precision measurements, including searches for gravitational waves using laser interferometers. In t…
