First Experimental Evaluation of Stray Light Noise Modeling of kilometers-long Beam Tube Arms of Gravitational Wave Detectors
Emilia Chick, Timothy O'Hanlon, Hiro Yamamoto +3
We present the results of the first experimental evaluation of stray light noise models for LIGO beam tube baffles. We combine the results of a testing campaign at LIGO Livingston…
Extending Ground-Based Gravitational-Wave Sensitivity to 5 Hz
Amit Singh Ubhi, Lari Koponen, Jiri Smetana +11
Extending the sensitivity of terrestrial gravitational-wave detectors below 20 Hz is a long-standing challenge, limited by ground motion and inertial sensing noise. In this letter,…
Demonstration of the minimal coupling of horizontal accelerations to rotations in a torsion balance suspended from three wires
Amit Singh Ubhi, Clive C. Speake, Emilia Chick +1
The Cavendish torsion balance is the instrument of choice for measuring weak forces, such as gravity. Although torsion balances have extremely high sensitivity for measuring forces…
Sensitivity and control of a 6-axis fused-silica seismometer
Jiri Smetana, Amit Singh Ubhi, Emilia Chick +12
We present a pair of seismometers capable of measurement in all six axes of rigid motion. The vacuum-compatible devices implement compact interferometric displacement sensors to su…
