The detection of gravitational waves from compact binary mergers by LIGO has opened the era of gravitational wave astronomy, revealing a previously hidden side of the cosmos. To maximize the reach of the existing LIGO observatory facilities, we have designed a new instrument that will have 5 times the range of Advanced LIGO, or greater than 100 times the event rate. Observations with this new instrument will make possible dramatic steps toward understanding the physics of the nearby universe, as well as observing the universe out to cosmological distances by the detection of binary black hole coalescences. This article presents the instrument design and a quantitative analysis of the anticipated noise floor.

    quant-ph 2024-08 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Extends prior two-photon formalism to compute true motion and optimal cooling in multi-DOF GW detector test masses, finding sub-unity occupation numbers possible over the oscillator bandwidth for common definitions.
