Frequency domain interferometer simulation with higher-order spatial modes
نویسنده
چکیده
Finesse is a software simulation allowing one to compute the optical properties of laser interferometers used by interferometric gravitational-wave detectors today. This fast and versatile tool has already proven to be useful in the design and commissioning of gravitational-wave detectors. The basic algorithm of Finesse numerically computes the light amplitudes inside an interferometer using HermiteGauss modes in the frequency domain. In addition, Finesse provides a number of commands for easily generating and plotting the most common signals including power enhancement, error and control signals, transfer functions and shot-noise-limited sensitivities. Among the various simulation tools available to the gravitational wave community today, Finesse provides an advanced and versatile optical simulation based on a general analysis of user-defined optical setups and is quick to install and easy to use.

Determination of Resonance Frequency of Dominant and Higher Order Modes in Thin and Thick Circular Microstrip Patch Antennas with Superstrate by MWM (RESEARCH NOTE)
An accurate model named as the Modified Wolff Model (MWM) is presented as an efficient CAD tool for determination of resonant frequency of the dominant and higher order modes under the multi-layer condition in thin and thick circular microstrip patch antennas. The effects of dielectric cover on the resonant frequency obtained from MWM have been compared against the result of theoretical method ...
متن کاملModal frequency degeneracy in thermally loaded optical resonators.
We observe power coupling from the fundamental mode to frequency-degenerate higher-order spatial modes in optical resonators illuminated with a 30 W laser. Thermally-induced modal frequency degeneracy facilitates power transfer from the fundamental mode to higher-order modes, reduces power coupling into the cavity, and triggers power fluctuations. Modeling thermoelastic deformation of a mirror'...

Longitudinal control system design is considered for a linearized dynamic model of a supersonic transport aircraft concept characterized by relaxed static stability and signi cant aeroelastic interactions. Two LQG-type controllers are designed using the frequencydomain additive uncertainty formulation to ensure robustness to unmodeled exible modes. The rst controller is based on a 4th-order mod...

متن کاملOutput-only Modal Analysis of a Beam Via Frequency Domain Decomposition Method Using Noisy Data
The output data from a structure is the building block for output-only modal analysis. The structure response in the output data, however, is usually contaminated with noise. Naturally, the success of output-only methods in determining the modal parameters of a structure depends on noise level. In this paper, the possibility and accuracy of identifying the modal parameters of a simply supported...
