Quantum Measurement in Gravitational-Wave Detectors

Frontiers in Optics 2007/Laser Science XXIII/Organic Materials and Devices for Displays and Energy Conversion, 2006
Laser interferometric gravitational-wave detectors measure tiny motions of macroscopic mirrors. Complex interferometer configurations and quantum optical techniques will be used to enhance sensitivity in future interferometers, which will reach and surpass the Standard Quantum Limit.

The ultracryogenic gravitational-wave detector AURIGA

Classical and Quantum Gravity, 1997
The first run of the ultracryogenic resonant bar detector AURIGA is in progress. Diagnostics on the cryogenics, the data acquisition system and on the noise characteristics have been performed, with results in accord with the design. The bar reached 140 mK. In tests down to 2 K the detector noise was very close to `Brownian'.

Alignment of an interferometric gravitational wave detector

Applied Optics, 1998
Interferometric gravitational wave detectors are designed to detect small perturbations in the relative lengths of their kilometer-scale arms that are induced by passing gravitational radiation. An analysis of the effects of imperfect optical alignment on the strain sensitivity of such an interferometer shows that to achieve maximum strain sensitivity ...

Low Temperature and Gravitation Wave Detectors

2014
The success of a precision experiment is often associated to the use of low temperature techniques. In particular, when the thermal noise is a barrier for improving the experiment sensitivity, the cryogenics is crucial for beating this limitation. This strategy was applied in the case of the resonant gravitational wave detectors (GW) and now it is ...
