Characterization of disturbance sources for LISA: torsion pendulum results
L. Carbone, A. Cavalleri, R. Dolesi +4
A torsion pendulum allows ground-based investigation of the purity of free-fall for the LISA test masses inside their capacitive position sensor. This paper presents recent improve…
Measuring the LISA test mass magnetic proprieties with a torsion pendulum
M. Hueller, M. Armano, L. Carbone +5
Achieving the low frequency LISA sensitivity requires that the test masses acting as the interferometer end mirrors are free-falling with an unprecedented small degree of deviation…
Sub-millimeter Tests of the Gravitational Inverse-square Law
C. D. Hoyle, D. J. Kapner, B. R. Heckel +4
Motivated by a variety of theories that predict new effects, we tested the gravitational 1/r^2 law at separations between 10.77 mm and 137 microns using two different 10-fold azimu…
Measuring random force noise for LISA aboard the LISA Pathfinder mission
D. Bortoluzzi, L. Carbone, A. Cavalleri +6
The LTP (LISA Testflight Package), to be flown aboard the ESA / NASA LISA Pathfinder mission, aims to demonstrate drag-free control for LISA test masses with acceleration noise bel…
