Lagrangian formalism for resonant capacitive transducers for gravitational-wave antennas

  • 1. Rome Univ. (Italy). Ist. di Fisica

Description

A general analysis of the characteristics of a resonant transducer for gravitational-wave antennas whose resonator has a general mode of vibration has been made using a Lagrangian formalism. The method has been applied to investigate the characteristics of the resonant capacitive transducer developed at the University of Rome and mounted on the cryogenic gravitational-wave antenna built at CERN, finding results in good agreement with the experimental behaviour
