A space-based interferometer operating in the previously unexplored mHz gravitational band has tremendous discovery potential. If history is any guide, the opening of a new spectral band will lead to the discovery of entirely new sources…

We propose a terrestrial detector for gravitational waves with frequencies between 0.3 Hz and 5 Hz. Therefore, we discuss a symmetric matter-wave interferometer with a single loop and a folded triple-loop geometry. The latter eliminates the…
