The Design of a Drag-Free CubeSat and the Housing for its Gravitational Reference Sensor
Carlo Zanoni, Abdul Alfauwaz, Ahmad Aljadaan +11
A Drag-Free CubeSat mission has been proposed to demonstrate the feasibility of a Gravitational Reference Sensor (GRS) with an optical readout for a 3 units (3U) spacecraft. A pure…
LISA-2020: An Intermediate Scale Space Gravitational Wave Observatory for This Decade
S. Buchman, J. A. Lipa, R. L. Byer +10
Over the last three decades, an exceptionally good science case has been made for pursuing gravitational wave (GW) astronomy. This has engendered a worldwide effort to detect the e…
UV LED charge control of an electrically isolated proof mass in a Gravitational Reference Sensor configuration at 255 nm
Karthik Balakrishnan, Ke-Xun Sun, Abdul Alfauwaz +15
Precise control over the potential of an electrically isolated proof mass is necessary for the operation of devices such as a Gravitational Reference Sensor (GRS) and satellite mis…
LAGRANGE: LAser GRavitational-wave ANtenna at GEo-lunar Lagrange points
J. W. Conklin, S. Buchman, V. Aguero +36
We describe a new space gravitational wave observatory design called LAGRANGE that maintains all important LISA science at about half the cost and with reduced technical risk. It c…
Gravity Probe B: Final Results of a Space Experiment to Test General Relativity
C. W. F. Everitt, D. B. DeBra, B. W. Parkinson +24
Gravity Probe B, launched 20 April 2004, is a space experiment testing two fundamental predictions of Einstein's theory of General Relativity (GR), the geodetic and frame-dragging…
