Effects of mode degeneracy in the LIGO Livingston Observatory recycling cavity
Andri M. Gretarsson, Erika D'Ambrosio, Valery Frolov +2
We analyze the electromagnetic fields in a Pound-Drever-Hall locked, marginally unstable, Fabry-Perot cavity as a function of small changes in the cavity length during resonance. M…
Upper limits on gravitational wave emission from 78 radio pulsars
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott, M. Kramer +1
We present upper limits on the gravitational wave emission from 78 radio pulsars based on data from the third and fourth science runs of the LIGO and GEO600 gravitational wave dete…
On the Analytic Structure of a Family of Hyperboloidal Beams of Potential Interest for Advanced LIGO
Vincenzo Galdi, Giuseppe Castaldi, Vincenzo Pierro +4
For the baseline design of the advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO), use of optical cavities with non-spherical mirrors supporting flat-top ("mesa")…
Reducing Thermoelastic Noise in Gravitational-Wave Interferometers by Flattening the Light Beams
Erika D'Ambrosio, Richard O'Shaughnessy, Sergey Strigin +2
In the baseline design for advanced LIGO interferometers, the most serious noise source is tiny, dynamically fluctuating bumps and valleys on the faces of the arm-cavity mirrors, c…
