LIGO Detector Characterization in the Second and Third Parts of the Fourth Observing Run
J. Glanzer, A. F. Helmling-Cornell, A. Calafat +244
LIGO detector characterization efforts enabled the confident detection of gravitational waves from hundreds of compact binary coalescences during the fourth observing run. Reliable…
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…
Constraints on ultralight bosons from merging binary and remnant black holes observed during the second and third parts of the fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1808
We present constraints on ultralight bosons using binary black hole mergers observed in the second and third parts of the fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observing run. Directed searches a…
Cryogenic Mechanical Loss of GaAs/AlGaAs Crystalline Coatings
Nicholas A. Didio, Steven D. Penn, Satoshi Tanioka +3
Optical coatings with minimal thermal noise are essential for high-precision, laser-based metrology experiments. Substrate-transferred crystalline GaAs/AlGaAs coa…
Combined Cavity Alignment and Mode-Mismatch Sensing using RF-QPD Sensors
Mitchell Schiworski, Stefan Ballmer
In this article we describe a scheme for sensing both the mode mismatch and alignment of a cavity which does not require custom sensors and uses only Quadrant Photo-Detectors (QPDs…
GWTC-5.0: Tests of General Relativity
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1822
The signals from the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA network of gravitational-wave (GW) detectors allow us to perform sensitive tests of general relativity (GR) in the dynamical and strong-field…
