On non-Gaussian beams and optomechanical parametric instabilities in interferometric gravitational wave detectors
Direct detection of gravitational radiation, predicted by Einstein’s general theory of relativity, remains one of the most exciting challenges in experimental physics. Due to their relatively weak interaction with matter, gravitational waves promise to allow exploration of hitherto inaccessible obje...
