This paper compares the performance of the RSE and Sagnac topologies in terms of quantum noise in gravitational wave detectors. It examines noise coupling differences and similarities, displacement noise in a 2- and 4-mirror cavity, and the influence of beam geometry on thermal noise. The GWINC model is used to analyze and compare the results. The conclusion suggests that the Sagnac topology offers better quantum noise performance.

Noise coupling – Sagnac compared to RSE • Quantum noise characteristic change • How do various displacement noises couple more due to four mirror cavities, e.g. TN, Seismic noise, etc... • Beam geometry changes and influences TN further • Higher losses in four mirror arm cavity • Etc...

Beam geometry changes affect the TN • Beam geometry on mirror surface depends on incidence angle Initial beam shape defined by: changes into: Note Take clipping loss into account in the following analysis ET Workshop, Erice, 10/2009
Beam geometry in the 4 mirror cavity • Mirror sizes used: r=31cm • Round beam with w=12cm has clipping loss of 1ppm Beam size on one of the four arm cavity mirrors Resulting Beam wx = 12cm & wy = 10cm ET Workshop, Erice, 10/2009

Current model status • Single detector • L = 10km • Underground • Seismic noise reduced • Gravity gradient noise reduced • Adapted thermal noises & suspension model • Optimisation parameters • Input laser power P • SR, ITM & PRM transmissivity • Tuning of SRM • Readout quadrature with homodyne detector ET Workshop, Erice, 10/2009
Things to keep in mind • This is a topology analysis and there is no intension to create a new baseline sensitivity curve • Following sensitivities are lower than the ones presented on the ET webpage • No magical factor used e.g. for the grav. gradient noise • No squeezing used • No cryogenic techniques • Nevertheless the following comparison is valid • The model can be changed later and a higher performing configuration can be found via optimisation ET Workshop, Erice, 10/2009
Figure of merit and optimisation • BHBH and NSNS inspiral ranges • Give parameters of standard candles. • BHBH: Mass each 30Msol, Distance 10Mpc, merger at ~5Hz • NSNS: Mass each 1.4Msol, Distance 23Mpc, merger at ~2.3kHz • 5D parameter space is scanned automatically for the optimal configuration with an adaptive resolution ET Workshop, Erice, 10/2009
