LIGO Detector Characterization in the Second and Third Parts of the Fourth Observing Run
J. Glanzer, A. F. Helmling-Cornell, A. Calafat +244
LIGO detector characterization efforts enabled the confident detection of gravitational waves from hundreds of compact binary coalescences during the fourth observing run. Reliable…
Narrow spectral artifact investigation and mitigation in LIGO data from the fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observing run
E. Goetz, A. Neunzert, A. M. Knee +258
We present efforts to identify, characterize, and mitigate narrow spectral artifacts in LIGO detector data during the fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observing run. Narrow spectral artifac…
Advanced LIGO detector performance in the fourth observing run
E. Capote, W. Jia, N. Aritomi +193
On May 24th, 2023, the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), joined by the Advanced Virgo and KAGRA detectors, began the fourth observing run for a t…
LIGO Detector Characterization in the first half of the fourth Observing run
S. Soni, B. K. Berger, D. Davis +232
Progress in gravitational-wave astronomy depends upon having sensitive detectors with good data quality. Since the end of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA third Observing run in March 2020, de…
Piezo-deformable Mirrors for Active Mode Matching in Advanced LIGO
Varun Srivastava, Georgia Mansell, Camille Makarem +16
The detectors of the laser interferometer gravitational-wave observatory (LIGO) are broadly limited by the quantum noise and rely on the injection of squeezed states of light to ac…
Point Absorber Limits to Future Gravitational-Wave Detectors
W. Jia, H. Yamamoto, K. Kuns +198
High-quality optical resonant cavities require low optical loss, typically on the scale of parts per million. However, unintended micron-scale contaminants on the resonator mirrors…
