Quantum Metrology for Gravitational Wave Astronomy

Roman Schnabel, Nergis Mavalvala, David E. McClelland +1

Einstein's General Theory of Relativity predicts that accelerating mass distributions produce gravitational radiation, analogous to electromagnetic radiation from accelerating char…

Nondegenerate internal squeezing: an all-optical, loss-resistant quantum technique for gravitational-wave detection

James W. Gardner, Min Jet Yap, Vaishali Adya +3

The detection of kilohertz-band gravitational waves promises discoveries in astrophysics, exotic matter, and cosmology. To improve the kilohertz quantum noise-limited sensitivity o…

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…

Quantum correlations between the light and kilogram-mass mirrors of LIGO

Haocun Yu, L. McCuller, M. Tse +196

Measurement of minuscule forces and displacements with ever greater precision encounters a limit imposed by a pillar of quantum mechanics: the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. A l…

Generation and control of frequency dependent squeezing via EPR entanglement

Min Jet Yap, Paul Altin, Terry G. McRae +3

The Standard Quantum Limit (SQL) in interferometric displacement measurement imposes a restriction on the precision of the measurement due to its quantum back-action noise. This li…

Broadband reduction of quantum radiation pressure noise via squeezed light injection

Min Jet Yap, Jonathan Cripe, Georgia L. Mansell +9

We present the reduction and manipulation of quantum radiation pressure noise (QRPN) in an optomechanical cavity with the injection of squeezed light. The optomechanical system con…
