Suppressing parametric instabilities in LIGO using low-noise acoustic mode dampers

Suppressing parametric instabilities in LIGO using low-noise acoustic mode dampers

© 2019 American Physical Society. Interferometric gravitational-wave detectors like LIGO need to be able to measure changes in their arm lengths of order 10-18 m or smaller. This requires very high laser power in order to raise the signal above shot noise. One significant limitation to increased las...
