Description

I shall first summarize the result of the old Munich-Frascati Webertype experiment, then discuss why the Munich group decided to develop a Weiss-Forward-type laser interferometer, and finally I shall sketch the strategy of optimal detection of collapse events with the latter type of antenna.
