  • Quantifying the Effects of Acoustic Coupling on Advanced LIGO

    Creator:
    Banowetz, Katherine
    Abstract:
    The Laser Gravitational Wave Observatory, or LIGO, is built to observe gravitational waves as they propagate through space. Advanced LIGO is extremely sensitive to movements of the test mass as small as 10⁻²¹ m/√Hz , which allows many signals other than gravitational waves to be detected by the system. Pressure...
