Particle swarm optimization of the sensitivity of a cryogenic gravitational wave detector
Cryogenic cooling of the test masses of interferometric gravitational wave detectors is a promising way to reduce thermal noise. However, cryogenic cooling limits the incident power to the test masses, which limits the freedom of shaping the quantum noise. Cryogenic cooling also requires short and thick suspension fibers to extract …
