Point Absorber Limits to Future Gravitational-Wave Detectors

W. Jia, H. Yamamoto, K. Kuns +198

High-quality optical resonant cavities require low optical loss, typically on the scale of parts per million. However, unintended micron-scale contaminants on the resonator mirrors…

Probing gluon spin-momentum correlations in transversely polarized protons through midrapidity isolated direct photons in collisions at GeV

U. A. Acharya, C. Aidala, Y. Akiba +308

Studying spin-momentum correlations in hadronic collisions offers a glimpse into a three-dimensional picture of proton structure. The transverse single-spin asymmetry for midrapidi…

Approaching the motional ground state of a 10 kg object

Chris Whittle, Evan D. Hall, Sheila Dwyer +197

The motion of a mechanical object -- even a human-sized object -- should be governed by the rules of quantum mechanics. Coaxing them into a quantum state is, however, difficult: th…

LIGO Detector Characterization in the Second and Third Observing Runs

D. Davis, J. S. Areeda, B. K. Berger +284

The characterization of the Advanced LIGO detectors in the second and third observing runs has increased the sensitivity of the instruments, allowing for a higher number of detecta…

Environmental Noise in Advanced LIGO Detectors

P. Nguyen, R. M. S. Schofield, A. Effler +215

The sensitivity of the Advanced LIGO detectors to gravitational waves can be affected by environmental disturbances external to the detectors themselves. Since the transition from…

Point absorbers in Advanced LIGO

Aidan F. Brooks, Gabriele Vajente, Hiro Yamamoto +198

Small, highly absorbing points are randomly present on the surfaces of the main interferometer optics in Advanced LIGO. The resulting nano-meter scale thermo-elastic deformations a…
