    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rana_X._Adhikari

    Adhikari has been involved in the construction and design of gravitational-wave detectors since 1997. [19] He started working on laser interferometers as a graduate student at MIT, with a particular focus on the variety of noise sources, feedback loops and subsystems, [20] [21] and helped to reduce the noise in all 3 of the LIGO interferometers while working on the Livingston interferometer.

    [1]: 6 The mass–energy of the missing 3.0 ± 0.5 M ☉ was radiated away in the form of gravitational waves. [ 3 ] During the final 20 milliseconds of the merger, the power of the radiated gravitational waves peaked at about 3.6 × 10 49 watts or 526 dBm – 50 times greater [ 50 ] than the combined power of all light radiated by all the ...
