Indium joints for cryogenic gravitational wave detectors
A viable technique for the preparation of highly thermal conductive joints between sapphire components in gravitational wave detectors is presented. The mechanical loss of such a joint was determined to be as low as 2×10 at 20 K and 2×10 at 300 K. The thermal noise performance of a typical joint is compared to the requirements of the Japanese gravitational wave detector, KAGRA. It is shown ...
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...
متن کاملCryogenic Q-factor measurement of optical substrates for optimization of gravitational wave detectors
Future generations of gravitational wave interferometers are likely to be operated at cryogenic temperatures because one of the sensitivity limiting factors of the present generation is the thermal noise of end mirrors and beam splitters that occurs in the optical substrates as well as in the dielectric coatings. A possible method for minimizing thermal noise is cooling to cryogenic temperature...
متن کاملSimulation of Gravitational Wave Detectors
A simulation program which provides insight in the vibrational properties of resonant mass gravitational radiation antennas is developed from scratch. The requirements that are set necessitate the use of an explicit nite element kernel. Since the computational complexity of this kernel requires signi cant computing power, it is tailored for execution on parallel computer systems. After validati...
