In-situ total scattering investigation of crystalline ordering in amorphous ion-beam sputtered thin films for interferometric gravitational wave detectors
Alberto Martinelli, Giulio Favaro, Giacomo Ciani +9
Amorphous tantala is an important optical material used in a number of high-precision optical applications, including gravitational wave interferometry. In this paper, we study in-…
Observing Double White Dwarfs with the Lunar GW Antenna
Giovanni Benetti, Marica Branchesi, Jan Harms +1
The Lunar Gravitational Wave Antenna (LGWA) is a proposed gravitational-wave detector that will observe in the decihertz (dHz) frequency region. In this band, binary white dwarf sy…
Finite state machine controls for a source of optical squeezed vacuum
Mateusz Bawaj, Valeria Sequino, Catherine Nguyen +8
In this paper we present a software, developed in the distributed control system environment of the Virgo gravitational-wave detector, for the management of a highly automated opti…
Search for light scalar Dark Matter candidate with AURIGA detector
Antonio Branca, Michele Bonaldi, Massimo Cerdonio +11
A search for a new scalar field, called moduli, has been performed using the cryogenic resonant-mass AURIGA detector. Predicted by string theory, moduli may provide a significant c…
General relativistic Sagnac formula revised
Paolo Maraner, Jean-Pierre Zendri
The Sagnac effect is a time or phase shift observed between two beams of light traveling in opposite directions in a rotating interferometer. We show that the standard description…
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…
