This project focuses on improving gravitational-wave detectors to enhance their sensitivity and information extraction capabilities. It explores quantum noise reduction techniques and investigates the quantum behavior of large test masses, aiming to advance our understanding of astrophysical phenomena.
Gravitational-waves, predicted by Einstein's general theory of relativity, will open up a new window into the universe.
Directly detecting them and eventually extracting information about astronomical phenomena requires new instruments with extremely high sensitivity, which only became feasible recently.
The current paradigm of gravitational-wave detectors uses kilometre-scale laser interferometers with suspended mirror-endowed test masses; the so-called advanced gravitational-wave detectors cur…
