The Advanced Virgo Core Optics |
Abstract |
This presentation will give an overview of the core optics design of the Advanced Virgo gravitational wave observatory. The actual configuration and optical parameters of the core interferometer are not only very likely to determine the final performance of Advanced Virgo, but also play a significant role in minimising the required commissioning time. We give an overview of the implemented optical technologies and the corresponding underlying principles. In addition we will describe how the experience from 1st generation detectors influenced the design choices of the advanced detectors. |
