Abstract

A new signal extraction chain for gravitational wave bar detectors is proposed. Signal transduction is made by means of a Fabry–Perot cavity. Using a reference cavity for frequency comparison a sensitivity of hmin=3×10−20 with a bandwidth of about 50 Hz is estimated for an ultracryogenic bar detector. The first prototype implementation as well as room-temperature measurements on it are reported.
