Living Reviews in RelativityIn the recent years, primordial black holes (PBHs) have emerged as one of the most interesting and hotly debated topics in cosmology. Among other possibilities, PBHs could explain both some of the signals from binary black hole mergers observed in ...Eleni Bagui, Sébastien Clesse, Valerio De Luca, Jose María Ezquiaga, Gabriele Franciolini, Juan García-Bellido, Cristian Joana, Rajeev Kumar Jain, Sachiko Kuroyanagi, Ilia Musco, Theodoros Papanikolaou, Alvise Raccanelli, Sébastien Renaux-Petel, Antonio Riotto, Ester Ruiz Morales, Marco Scalisi, Olga Sergijenko, Caner Ünal, Vincent Vennin, David Wands, For the LISA Cosmology Working Group +20 moredoaj +2 more sourcesLIGO: the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory [PDF]
Reports on Progress in Physics, 2009 The goal of the Laser Interferometric Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) is to detect and study gravitational waves of astrophysical origin. Direct detection of gravitational waves holds the promise of testing general relativity in the strong-field regime, of providing a new probe of exotic objects such as black hole and neutron stars, and of ...Abbott B.

Quantum Aspects of Beam Physics 2003, 2004 It is shown that atom interferometry allows for the construction of MIGO, the Matter-wave Interferometric Gravitational-wave Observatory. MIGOs of the same sensitivity as LIGO or LISA are expected to be orders of magnitude smaller than either one. A design for MIGO using crystalline diffraction gratings is introduced, and its sensitivity is calculated.RAYMOND Y. CHIAO, ACHILLES D.
