Excess mechanical loss associated with dielectric mirror coatings on test masses in interferometric gravitational wave detectors
Interferometric gravitational wave detectors use mirrors whose substrates are formed from materials of low intrinsic mechanical dissipation. The two most likely choices for the test masses in future advanced detectors are fused silica or sapphire (Rowan S et a1 2000 Plzys. Lett. A 265 5). These test masses must be coated to form minors, highly reflecting at 1064 nm. We have measured the excess ...

متن کاملPhoton-pressure-induced test mass deformation in gravitational-wave detectors
A widely used assumption within the gravitational-wave community has so far been that a test mass acts like a rigid body for frequencies in the detection band, i.e. for frequencies far below the first internal resonance. In this article we demonstrate that localized forces, applied for example by a photon pressure actuator, can result in a non-negligible elastic deformation of the test masses. ...
متن کاملSpherical Gravitational Wave Detectors
Resonant bar gravitational wave detectors have improved greatly over the last 40 years but are currently completely outperformed by laser interferometer detectors. Spherical detector configuration has several advantages over conventional bar detectors and can be considered as the next generation of resonant gravitational wave antenna. In this report, I will give a brief introduction to gravitat...

uncertainty from having a discrete spacetime has been reduced by a factor of three. This correspondingly reduces the error on extrapolating from the unphysical lattice world to the real world. Until now, this uncertainty has been a problem for the charm quark because its relatively large mass gives it a shortwavelength quantum field that can ‘see’ the lattice spacing. This improvement also help...
