Science Documents

•   An excerpt from the ET proposal: A general description of the ET design study as well as a summary description of the work covered by the WP3 group.
  
• Triple Michelson Interferometer for a Third-Generation Gravitational Wave Detector (arXiv): A review article on the idea of using Michelson interferometers in a triangular shape.
• Pushing towards the ET sensitivity using 'conventional' techniques: Analysis of how far the sensitivity of a 10km Michelson can be pushed by using only conventional technology (Also available at  arXiv:0810.0604v1 [gr-qc]). This plot shows a comparison of the ET sensitivity from the initial proposal and this analysis. The data of the ET sensitivity from arxiv:0810.0604 can be found here: Matlab file containing two vectors for frequency and strain sensitivity (as amplitude spectral density).

Design study writing stuff

• Any feedback we got from people and proof-readers on the optics section can be found in this folder. Please add any comments or notes on changes that you can get hold off. Please also scan any handwritten notes. For the moment everybody can choose whether he/she wants to implement the corrections right now or only after the re-organisation or rewriting of the sections.
• A TO-DO list for things that we still need to do can be found on this page.
• A list of concrete proposals of things that people want to have changed can be found here. We will discuss and decide on these points in a telecon. Only after a decision they will go over into the TO-Do List.
