Optimization of thermal noise in multi-loop pendulum suspensions for use in interferometric gravitational-wave detectors
Constantin Brif
We study the thermal-noise spectrum of multi-loop pendulum suspensions for test masses in interferometric gravitational-wave detectors. The dependence of the thermal noise on suspe…

Notes on anelastic effects and thermal noise in suspensions of test masses in interferometric gravitational-wave detectors
Constantin Brif
The thermal noise is expected to be one of the main limiting factors on the sensitivity of interferometric gravitational-wave detectors like LIGO and VIRGO. Thermal fluctuations of…
