Advanced vibration isolation and control for a large suspended optical cavity

The University of Western Australia Department of Physics

The gravitational wave interferometer detectors are the most sensitive instrument in the world. They sense the position change of test masses due to the passing gravitational waves to the precision in the order of 10-20m! The planned future detectors are aiming to improve the sensitivity 10-fold and broaden the sensitive frequency range. Read more
