Squeezing the quantum noise of a gravitational-wave detector below the standard quantum limit
Wenxuan Jia, Victoria Xu, Kevin Kuns +168
Precision measurements of space and time, like those made by the detectors of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO), are often confronted with fundamental…
