Possible improvements of gravitational antennas
Creators
Description
The optimization of a gravitational antenna is studied in this paper. It is shown that the gravitational cross section of a conical antenna is 20% larger than that of a cylindrical one. A conical antenna is less suitable for use with ceramic transducers; however, when capacitative detectors are employed, its sensitivity can be improved by a factor of about 5 with respect to cylindrical antennas.
