Cosmic Explorer is a proposed third generation ground-based gravitational wave observatory. [1] [2] [3] Cosmic Explorer uses the same L-shaped design as the LIGO detectors, except with ten times longer arms of 40 km each.
The first run, O1, ran from September 12, 2015, to January 19, 2016, and succeeded in its first gravitational wave detection. O2 ran for a greater duration, from November 30, 2016, to August 25, 2017. [3] O3 began on April 1, 2019, which was briefly suspended on September 30, 2019, for maintenance and upgrades, thus O3a.
Allegro was a ground-based, cryogenic resonant Weber bar, gravitational-wave detector [1] run by Warren Johnson, et al. at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The detector was commissioned in the early 1990s, and was decommissioned in 2008.
Gravitational-wave astronomy is a subfield of astronomy concerned with the detection and study of gravitational waves emitted by astrophysical sources. [ 1 ] Gravitational waves are minute distortions or ripples in spacetime caused by the acceleration of massive objects.
The Mario Schenberg (Gravitational Wave Detector, or Brazilian Graviton Project [1] or Graviton) is a spherical, resonant-mass, gravitational wave detector formerly run by the Physics Institute of the University of São Paulo, named after Mário Schenberg.
The signal was named GW150914 (from gravitational wave and the date of observation 2015-09-14). [ 3 ] [ 11 ] It was also the first observation of a binary black hole merger, demonstrating both the existence of binary stellar-mass black hole systems and the fact that such mergers could occur within the current age of the universe .
Millimeter wave (mmWave) sensing is a non-contact system of using mmWave radar sensors to measure movement, acceleration, and angles as small as a fraction of a millimeter. [1] This system requires a mmWave radar sensor to transmit and receive pulses of millimeter electromagnetic wave energy, detecting targets and motion from the reflections it ...
Code injection is a computer security exploit where a program fails to correctly process external data, such as user input, causing it to interpret the data as executable commands.
