The Science of the Einstein Telescope
Adrian Abac, Raul Abramo, Simone Albanesi +485
Einstein Telescope (ET) is the European project for a gravitational-wave (GW) observatory of third-generation. In this paper we present a comprehensive discussion of its science ob…
Development of ion-beam sputtered silicon nitride thin films for low-noise mirror coatings of gravitational-wave detectors
A. Amato, M. Bazzan, G. Cagnoli +32
Brownian thermal noise of thin-film coatings is a fundamental limit for high-precision experiments based on optical resonators such as gravitational-wave interferometers. Here we p…
