LIGO A: Detector Design and Science Prospects Beyond A+
L. Sun, K. Kuns, B. J. J. Slagmolen +1153
We present the LIGO A detector concept, an upgrade for the LIGO observatories based on room-temperature interferometers beyond the fifth observing run (O5). Building on th…
Improving Beam Quality in Gravitational-Wave Interferometers Illuminated by Higher-Order Laguerre-Gaussian Modes
Liu Tao, Yuefan Guo, Alberto Gatto +5
Higher-order Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) laser modes have been proposed to reduce test-mass thermal noise in laser interferometric gravitational-wave detectors, owing to their more homo…
A Systematic Error in the Internal Friction Measurement of Coatings for Gravitational Waves Detectors
Alex Amato, Diana Lumaca, Elisabetta Cesarini +9
Low internal friction coatings are key components of advanced technologies such as optical atomic clocks and high-finesse optical cavity and often lie at the forefront of the most…
Narrow-band search of continuous gravitational-wave signals from Crab and Vela pulsars in Virgo VSR4 data
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +894
In this paper we present the results of a coherent narrow-band search for continuous gravitational-wave signals from the Crab and Vela pulsars conducted on Virgo VSR4 data. In orde…
