TL;DR: TAMA300, an interferometric gravitational-wave detector with 300-m baseline length, has been developed and operated with sufficient sensitivity to detect gravitational- wave events within the authors' galaxy and sufficient stability for observations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental study of thermal noise caused by an inhomogeneously distributed loss
TL;DR: In this paper, the thermal fluctuation of a mechanical system with an inhomogeneously distributed loss was measured to prove the invalidity of the normal mode expansion method which is commonly used to calculate the thermal noise of mechanical oscillators.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement of the mechanical loss of crystalline samples using a nodal support
Kenji Numata,Giuseppe Bertolotto Bianc,Mitsuru Tanaka,Shigemi Otsuka,Keita Kawabe,Masaki Ando,Kimio Tsubono +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the mechanical loss of crystalline anisotropic samples (silicon and sapphire) using a nodal support and showed that the silicon sample reached 1.0×10 8 at room temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
New signal extraction scheme with harmonic demodulation for power-recycled Fabry–Perot–Michelson interferometers
TL;DR: In this article, a new signal-extraction scheme based on harmonic demodulation for control of a power-recycled interferometric gravitational-wave detector is presented. But this scheme requires the detector to be equipped with an external antenna.
Journal ArticleDOI
Signal-separation experiments for a power-recycled Fabry–Perot–Michelson interferometer by sideband elimination
TL;DR: In this paper, signal extraction and control experiments on a power-recycled Fabry-Perot-Michelson interferometer, a prototype gravitational wave detector, are described.
