Sensitivity and Performance of the Advanced LIGO Detectors in the Third Observing Run
LIGO Instrument Science List, :, A. Buikema +197
On April 1st, 2019, the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (aLIGO), joined by the Advanced Virgo detector, began the third observing run, a year-long dedi…
Improving the Robustness of the Advanced LIGO Detectors to Earthquakes
Eyal Schwartz, A Pele, J Warner +196
Teleseismic, or distant, earthquakes regularly disrupt the operation of ground--based gravitational wave detectors such as Advanced LIGO. Here, we present \emph{EQ mode}, a new glo…
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…
Quantum noise cancellation in asymmetric speed meters with balanced homodyne readout
T Zhang, E Knyazev, S Steinlechner +17
Sagnac speed meter (SSM) topology is known as an alternative technique to reduce quantum back-action in gravitational-wave interferometers. However, any potential imbalance of the…
Improving astrophysical parameter estimation via offline noise subtraction for Advanced LIGO
J. C. Driggers, S. Vitale, A. P. Lundgren +228
The Advanced LIGO detectors have recently completed their second observation run successfully. The run lasted for approximately 10 months and lead to multiple new discoveries. The…
Demonstration of a switchable damping system to allow low-noise operation of high-Q low-mass suspension systems
Jan-Simon Hennig, Bryan W. Barr, Angus S. Bell +16
Low mass suspension systems with high-Q pendulum stages are used to enable quantum radiation pressure noise limited experiments. Utilising multiple pendulum stages with vertical bl…
