Abstract:
The suspension systems for future Gravitational Wave (GW) detectors require an improved level of immunity to sources of mechanical perturbation of their suspended test-masses. The displacement sensors used to mitigate such perturbations (OSEMs) need to be upgraded for improving their performance in frequency range less than 1 Hz. The conceptual design of displacement shadow sensors utilising a 'displacement doubling prism' [1] is presented.
