Sensors and Actuators for the Advanced LIGO+ Upgrade
S J Cooper, C M Mow-Lowry, D Hoyland +6
As part of the Advanced LIGO+ (A+) project we have developed, produced, and characterised sensors and electronics to interrogate new optical suspensions. The central element is a d…
Reducing controls noise in gravitational wave detectors with interferometric local damping of suspended optics
J van Dongen, L Prokhorov, S J Cooper +15
Control noise is a limiting factor in the low-frequency performance of the LIGO gravitational wave detectors. In this paper we model the effects of using new sensors called HoQIs t…
Novel Materials and Concepts for Next-Generation High Power Target Applications
Kavin Ammigan, Sujit Bidhar, Frederique Pellemoine +36
Novel beam-intercepting materials and targetry concepts are essential to improve the performance, reliability and operation lifetimes of next generation multi-megawatt (multi-MW) a…
COMET Phase-I Technical Design Report
The COMET Collaboration, R. Abramishvili, G. Adamov +191
The Technical Design for the COMET Phase-I experiment is presented in this paper. COMET is an experiment at J-PARC, Japan, which will search for neutrinoless conversion of muons in…
Response of a tungsten powder target to an incident high energy proton beam
Ottone Caretta, Tristan Davenne, Chris Densham +7
The experiment described in this paper is the first study of the response of a static tungsten powder sample to an impinging high energy proton beam pulse. The experiment was carri…
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…
