Description

Laser Interferometers Gravitational Wave detectors have more than 100 active attenuator systems, the normal methods for calibration seems to not work properly. This work aims to model a calibrator for this detector in the form of a resonant-mass Nb gravitational detector thar has the same sensitivity of LIGO detector bur operating in a narrow band. This detector will detect the same gravitational wave and use this signal to calibrate LIGO. A simulation in a lumped model is made and it shows that the calibration is achievable. (paper)
