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…
Scattered light noise at LIGO Livingston Observatory during O4
Debasmita Nandi, Anamaria Effler, Siddharth Soni +6
Scattered light is one of the most common sources of noise in the LIGO gravitational wave detectors. Light scattering is a highly non-linear process through which motion at low fre…
Modeling and Reduction of High Frequency Scatter Noise at LIGO Livingston
Siddharth Soni, Jane Glanzer, Anamaria Effler +4
The sensitivity of aLIGO detectors is adversely affected by the presence of noise caused by light scattering. Low frequency seismic disturbances can create higher frequency scatter…
Noise in the LIGO Livingston Gravitational Wave Observatory due to Trains
Jane Glanzer, Siddharth Soni, Jaidyn Spoon +2
Environmental seismic disturbances limit the sensitivity of LIGO gravitational wave detectors. Trains near the LIGO Livingston detector produce low frequency (0.5-10 Hz) ground noi…
Effects of transients in LIGO suspensions on searches for gravitational waves
M. Walker, T. D. Abbott, S. M. Aston +200
This paper presents an analysis of the transient behavior of the Advanced LIGO suspensions used to seismically isolate the optics. We have characterized the transients in the longi…
