Prospects for Multimessenger Observations of Thorne–Żytkow Objects Open
Thorne–Żytkow objects (TŻOs) are a class of stellar object comprised of a neutron star core surrounded by a large and diffuse envelope. Their exterior appearance is identical to red supergiants; the distinctive electromagnetic signature of…

Sensing optical cavity mismatch with a mode-converter and quadrant photodiode Open
We present a new technique for sensing optical cavity mode mismatch and\nalignment by using a cylindrical lens mode converting telescope,\nradio-frequency quadrant photodiodes, and a heterodyne detection scheme. The\ntelescope allows the c…

Point defects in IBS coating for very low loss mirrors Open
High reflective coatings are used in many physics experiments. Despite the high quality of the opticalcoating, the performances of the mirrors is altered by the scattered light induced by micrometers sizedefects in the coating layers. The …

Folding gravitational-wave interferometers Open
The sensitivity of kilometer-scale terrestrial gravitational wave\ninterferometers is limited by mirror coating thermal noise. We explore the\neffect of folding the arm cavities of such interferometers. While simple\nfolding alone does not…
