Tilt-to-length coupling in LISA Pathfinder: a data analysis

M Armano, H Audley, J Baird +76

We present a study of the tilt-to-length coupling noise during the LISA Pathfinder mission and how it depended on the system's alignment. Tilt-to-length coupling noise is the unwan…

Charging of free-falling test masses in orbit due to cosmic rays: results from LISA Pathfinder

LISA Pathfinder Collaboration, M. Armano, H. Audley +72

A comprehensive summary of the measurements made to characterize test mass charging due to the space environment during the LISA Pathfinder mission is presented. Measurements of th…

Transient acceleration events in LISA Pathfinder data: properties and possible physical origin

LISA Pathfinder Collaboration

We present an in depth analysis of the transient events, or glitches, detected at a rate of about one per day in the differential acceleration data of LISA Pathfinder. We show that…

Spacecraft and interplanetary contributions to the magnetic environment on-board LISA Pathfinder

M. Armano, H. Audley, J. Baird +79

LISA Pathfinder (LPF) has been a space-based mission designed to test new technologies that will be required for a gravitational wave observatory in space. Magnetically driven forc…

LISA Pathfinder Performance Confirmed in an Open-Loop Configuration: Results from the Free-Fall Actuation Mode

M. Armano, H. Audley, J. Baird +75

We report on the results of the LISA Pathfinder (LPF) free-fall mode experiment, in which the control force needed to compensate the quasistatic differential force acting on two te…

Forbush decreases and 2-day GCR flux non-recurrent variations studied with LISA Pathfinder

C. Grimani, M. Armano, H. Audley +82

Non-recurrent short term variations of the galactic cosmic-ray (GCR) flux above 70 MeV n were observed between 2016 February 18 and 2017 July 3 aboard the European Space Age…

LISA Pathfinder Platform Stability and Drag-free Performance

Michele Armano, Heather Audley, Jonathon Baird +75

The science operations of the LISA Pathfinder mission has demonstrated the feasibility of sub-femto-g free-fall of macroscopic test masses necessary to build a LISA-like gravitatio…

Precision Charge Control for Isolated Free-Falling Test Masses: LISA Pathfinder Results

M. Armano, H. Audley, J. Baird +82

The LISA Pathfinder charge management device was responsible for neutralising the cosmic ray induced electric charge that inevitably accumulated on the free-falling test masses at…

Calibrating the system dynamics of LISA Pathfinder

M. Armano, H. Audley, J. Baird +75

LISA Pathfinder (LPF) was a European Space Agency mission with the aim to test key technologies for future space-borne gravitational-wave observatories like LISA. The main scientif…

Characteristics and energy dependence of recurrent galactic cosmic-ray flux depressions and of a Forbush decrease with LISA Pathfinder

M. Armano, H. Audley, J. Baird +82

Galactic cosmic-ray (GCR) energy spectra observed in the inner heliosphere are modulated by the solar activity, the solar polarity and structures of solar and interplanetary origin…

Laser Interferometer Space Antenna

Pau Amaro-Seoane, Heather Audley, Stanislav Babak +81

Following the selection of The Gravitational Universe by ESA, and the successful flight of LISA Pathfinder, the LISA Consortium now proposes a 4 year mission in response to ESA's c…

The LTP Experiment on the LISA Pathfinder Mission

S. Vitale

We report on the development of the LISA Technology Package (LTP) experiment that will fly on board the LISA Pathfinder mission of the European Space Agency in 2008. We first summa…
