| Outline of Research at the Start |
Gravitational wave (GW) astronomy has became a mature research field. At five years from the first detection of a GW, almost one hundred more have been detected. To keep pushing this trend, the GW detectors need to be improved. In particular, for the Japanese detector KAGRA, the main limitation is its quantum noise. Dr. Eisenmann, together with the TAMA Filter Cavity team members, will design and and implement a quantum noise suppression system in KAGRA using frequency dependent squeezed state of light. He will also contribute to the commissioning of KAGRA interferometer.
