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…
Quantum statistical properties of the radiation field in a cavity with a movable mirror
C. Brif, A. Mann
A quantum system composed of a cavity radiation field interacting with a movable mirror is considered and quantum statistical properties of the field are studied. Such a system can…
Testing Bell's inequality with two-level atoms via population spectroscopy
C. Brif, A. Mann
We propose a feasible experimental scheme, employing methods of population spectroscopy with two-level atoms, for a test of Bell's inequality for massive particles. The correlation…
Inverted spectroscopy and interferometry for quantum-state reconstruction of systems with SU(2) symmetry
C. Brif, A. Mann
We consider how the conventional spectroscopic and interferometric schemes can be rearranged to serve for reconstructing quantum states of physical systems possessing SU(2) symmetr…
Reduction of optimum light power with Heisenberg-limited photon-counting noise in interferometric gravitational-wave detectors
Constantin Brif
We study how the behavior of quantum noise, presenting the fundamental limit on the sensitivity of interferometric gravitational-wave detectors, depends on properties of input stat…
