We present a study of scattered light noise in ground-based gravitational-wave detectors, based on advanced simulations for the Einstein Telescope (ET) and Virgo. Stray light mitigation remains a critical challenge for current interferometers, as the residual light can couple into the main beam and limit the sensitivity. For ET, we present updated noise estimations for both the high- and...
Accurate interferometric simulations are essential to understand and optimize the performance of current gravitational wave (GW) detectors, as well as to design next-generation observatories. Sim- ulations play a crucial role in improving detector sensitivity, testing new control strategies and devel- oping advanced noise mitigation techniques. Particularly as the global GW network sensitivity...
Accurate modeling of gravitational waves from precessing binary systems is essential for improving signal detection and parameter estimation in current and future detectors. Hybrid waveforms, which stitch together gravitational wave signals from different modeling approaches, provide a way to generate complete inspiral-merger-ringdown signals. While hybridization is well-established for...
