Construction techniques and commissioning of the Three-Backlink Experiment for the LISA mission
Lea Bischof, Melanie Ast, Jiang Ji Ho-Zhang +10
Designed to detect gravitational waves in the lower-frequency band, the space mission LISA will open a new window to astronomy after its launch in the 2030s. Each LISA spacecraft h…
Demonstrating sub-picometer non-reciprocity levels in the Three-Backlink Experiment for LISA
Jiang Ji Ho-Zhang, Melanie Ast, Lea Bischof +9
The current planned space-based gravitational-wave detectors require a bidirectional optical connection, referred to as Backlink, between two adjacent optical benches to provide a…
Distributed Acoustic Fiber Sensing for Research Campuses and Large Scientific Infrastructures -- The Hamburg WAVE proto-network
Oliver Bölt, Luigia Cristiano, Sandy Croatto +17
Here, we demonstrate and investigate how Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) can be utilized on research campuses and in large scientific infrastructures to study environmental vibr…
GEMINI: The First Underground Testbed for Seismic Isolation and Interplatform Control in Next-Generation Gravitational-Wave Detectors
Tomislav Andric, Jan Harms, Ilaria Caravella +18
GEMINI is an underground research and development facility dedicated to advancing seismic isolation and control technologies for future gravitational-wave observatories, including…
Using tunable coherence for reaching micrometer coherence lengths and suppressing stray light in a power-recycled Michelson interferometer
Daniel Voigt, Oliver Gerberding
By reentering into laser interferometers, scattered or stray light introduces non-linear noise. This is a major limitation of precision interferometers as preventing such parasitic…
Reducing suspension control noise with interferometric sensors -- an experimental concept
Nils Leander Weickhardt, Artem Basalaev, Oliver Gerberding
One of the limiting noise sources of ground-based gravitational wave detectors at frequencies below 30 Hz is control-induced displacement noise. Compact laser interferometric senso…
