Small optic suspensions for Advanced LIGO input optics and other precision optical experiments.

TL;DR: The design and performance of small optic suspensions developed to suppress seismic motion of out-of-cavity optics in the input optics subsystem of the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory are reported on.
Journal ArticleDOI

Advanced LIGO squeezer platform for backscattered light and optical loss reduction

TL;DR: In this article, the seismic isolation platform of the Advanced LIGO gravitational-wave detectors is described, which is tuned to minimize backscattered light that otherwise deteriorates the sensitivity of the detectors.

Searches for continuous gravitational waves from young supernova remnants in the early third observing run of Advanced LIGO and Virgo

Richard J. Abbott, +1587 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present results of three wideband directed searches for continuous gravitational waves from 15 young supernova remnants in the first half of the third Advanced LIGO and Virgo observing run.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improving the Robustness of the Advanced LIGO Detectors to Earthquakes.

Eyal Schwartz, +198 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new global control scheme, consisting of an automated sequence of optimized control filters that reduces and coordinates the motion of the seismic isolation platforms during earthquakes, is presented. But the work is limited to the case of LIGO.
