Sensitivity of the spherical gravitational wave detector MiniGRAIL operating at 5 K
L. Gottardi, A. de Waard, A. Usenko +7
We present the performances and the strain sensitivity of the first spherical gravitational wave detector equipped with a capacitive transducer and read out by a low noise two-stag…
Advanced VIRGO: detector optimization for gravitational waves by inspiralling binaries
Alessandro D. A. M. Spallicci, Sofiane Aoudia, Jose De Freitas Pacheco +2
For future configurations, we study the relation between the abatement of the noise sources and the Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) for coalescing binaries. Our aim is not the proposit…
Resonance widening in spherical GW detectors: model descriptions of the dissipation processes
Eugenio Coccia, Viviana Fafone, Giorgio Frossati +2
Internal friction effects are responsible for line widening of the resonance frequencies in mechanical oscillators and result in damped oscillations of its eigenmodes with a decay…
GRAIL, an omni-directional gravitational wave detector
D. v. Albada, W. v. Amersfoort, H. Boer Rookhuizen +12
A cryogenic spherical and omni-directional resonant-mass detector proposed by the GRAIL collaboration is described.
