  3. Other research projectsat NAOJ • Displacement-noise free Interferometer • RSE • DECIGO • MHz GW detection • QND

  4. Displacement-noise free Interferometer

  5. Motivation • Displacement noise: seismic Noise, thermal noise, radiation pressure noise • Cancel displacement noise  shot noise limited sensitivity • Increase laser power  sensitivity improved indefinitely Diplacement noise Displacement noise Cancel displacement noise Shot noise Sensitivity Increase laser power PD Laser Frequency

  6. Principle 1: GW and mirror motion interact with light differently Difference outstanding for GW wavelength  distance between masses GW On reflection On propagation Light Mirror motion Mirror motion

  7. Principle 2: Mirror motion can be cancelled by combining interferometer outputs • Increase # of mirrors • Implement many interferometers • Take combination outputs  cancel mirror motion Laser Mirror motion PD Laser Mirror motion PD Bi-directional MZ

  8. Example of DFI • Two 3-d bi-directional MZ • Take combination of 4 outputs • Mirror motion completely cancelled • GW signal remains (f 2)
