Squeezing for cosmic symphony

open access: yesAAPPS Bulletin, 2023
We briefly review the status of applying quantum squeezing to aid the search for gravitational waves with km-scale laser interferometers operating in the audio frequency band.

Gravitational-wave physics and astronomy in the 2020s and 2030s

open access: yesNature Reviews Physics, 2021
The 100 years since the publication of Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity saw significant development of the understanding of the theory, the identification of potential astrophysical sources of sufficiently strong gravitational waves and ...

Advanced Virgo: a second-generation interferometric gravitational wave detector [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Advanced Virgo is the project to upgrade the Virgo interferometric detector of gravitational waves, with the aim of increasing the number of observable galaxies (and thus the detection rate) by three orders of magnitude. The project is now in an advanced

Searches for continuous-wave gravitational radiation [PDF]

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Relativity, 2022
Now that detection of gravitational-wave signals from the coalescence of extra-galactic compact binary star mergers has become nearly routine, it is intriguing to consider other potential gravitational-wave signatures.

Current status of space gravitational wave antenna DECIGO and B-DECIGO [PDF]

open access: yesProgress of Theoretical and Experimental Physics, 2020
The Deci-hertz Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (DECIGO) is a future Japanese space mission with a frequency band of 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz. DECIGO aims at the detection of primordial gravitational waves, which could have been produced during the

Twisted gravitational waves [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2018
In general relativity (GR), linearized gravitational waves propagating in empty Minkowski spacetime along a fixed spatial direction have the property that the wave front is the Euclidean plane. Beyond the linear regime, exact plane waves in GR have been studied theoretically for a long time and many exact vacuum solutions of the gravitational field ...

Challenges and opportunities of gravitational-wave searches at MHz to GHz frequencies [PDF]

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Relativity, 2020
The first direct measurement of gravitational waves by the LIGO and Virgo collaborations has opened up new avenues to explore our Universe. This white paper outlines the challenges and gains expected in gravitational-wave searches at frequencies above ...

Probing supermassive black hole binaries with orbital resonances of laser-ranged satellites

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
Coalescing supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) are the primary source candidates for low frequency gravitational wave (GW) detections, which could bring us deep insights into galaxy evolutions over cosmic time and violent processes of spacetime ...

Using DWS Optical Readout to Improve the Sensitivity of Torsion Pendulum

open access: yesSensors, 2023
In space gravitational wave detection missions, a drag-free system is used to keep the test mass (TM) free-falling in an ultralow-noise environment.
