LIGO - Highly Stabilized Lasers in Search of Gravitational Waves

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

LIGO has reached its design displacement sensitivity of 1×1019m/Hz and is searching for gravitational waves from astrophysical and cosmological sources. We present the fundamental advances in laser and optical technology that make LIGO work.
