Heterodyne Detection of Gravitational Waves in a Michelson Interferometer with a Vibrating Mirror

Quantum Physics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

A new heterodyne detection method is suggested for detecting gravitational waves in a Michelson Interferometer. The method is based on interference between phase changes which are induced by a vibrating mirror with phase changes which are due to the gravitational waves. The advantage of using a second order correlation function in the present analysis is discussed.
