Thermal Background

An intense non-thermal background of cosmic gravitational radiation in the Megaparsec wave band could be detected by its influence on many astrophysical processes. In particular, it may give an explanation of the so-called redshift anomalies.

Detection Capabilities

An experiment is described in which microwave Doppler is used to determine very small changes in path length to spacecraft tracked by the Deep Space Tracking Network (DSN). The experiment was carried out to test the detection capabilities of the DSN system to gravitational radiation of very low frequency (10−2–10−4 Hz). In this work spectral analysis of Doppler variations were performed for periods over 4 hours and more.These results indicated that one of major sources of noise was due to rapid variations in tropospheric refraction. The results obtained a differential path length variation, ΔL/L, of 1 part in 1014 for periods between 100 and 1 000 seconds.Doppler spectra are shown and a general discussion of the experiment is given.

Detection of gravitational waves (GWs) from merging binary black holes (BHs) by Advanced LIGO has ushered in the new era of GW astronomy. Many conceivable sources such as intermediate-mass BH binaries and white dwarf binaries, as well as stellar-mass BH inspirals, would emit GWs below 10 Hz. It is highly desirable to open a new window for GW astronomy in the infrasound frequency band. A low-frequency tensor detector could be constructed by combining six magnetically levitated superconducting test masses. Such a detector would be equally sensitive to GWs coming from anywhere in the sky, and would be capable of resolving the source direction and wave polarization. I will present the design concept of a new terrestrial GW detector, named SOGRO, which could reach a strain sensitivity of 10−19-10−21 Hz−1/2 at 0.1-10 Hz. Seismic and Newtonian gravity noises are serious obstacles in constructing terrestrial GW detectors at frequencies below 10 Hz. I will explain how these noises are rejected in SOGRO. I will also report the progress made in designing the platform and modelling its thermal noise.
