Journal ArticleDOI
Relativistic coupling of phase and amplitude noise in optical interferometry.
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of small corrections of order v/c (v the velocity of the optic) on the light was investigated and the effect on the sensitivity of optical interferometers was discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Method for determining damping properties of materials using a suspended mechanical oscillator
TL;DR: In this paper, a finite element model and the vibration measurements are used to deduce the loss factor from the oscillator's ring-down, independently for shear and compression deformation of the sample over a range of frequencies.
