LISA
Rüdiger, ‘85
Improved sensitivity compared to LIGO and Virgo
– Sensitivity below 10-24 1/sqrt(Hz)– Ultra-low frequency cut-off
Underground site Multiple interferometers
– 3 interferometers; triangular configuration?
– 10 km long arms– 2 polarization + redundancy
Design study part of FP7 & ILIAS
Site identification issues: science

LISA
Seismic displacement noise
Seismic displacement noise – Driven by wind, volcanic, seismic activity– Ocean tides, cultural noise (e.g. humans, cars)– Ground-water variations– Complicates operation of ITF, certainly in future
designs with high finesse cavities– Active control systems, seismometers feedback to
mirrors Underground
– Surface and compression waves– Die exponentially with depth

LISA
Experience: CLIO – Prototype for LCGT
![Page 5: Jo van den Brand e-mail: jo@nikhef.nl](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062811/5681610e550346895dd065a1/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
LISA
Experience: underground interferometers LISM: 20 m Fabry-Perot interferometer, R&D for LCGT, moved
from Mitaka (ground based) to Kamioka (underground)
Seismic noise much lower:
Operation becomes easier

LISA
Gravity gradient noise
Gravity gradient noise– Time varying contributions to Newtonian
background driven by seismic compression waves, ground-water variations, slow-gravity drifts, weather, cultural noise
– Determines low-frequency cut-off– Cannot be shielded against
Counter measures– Network of seismometers and development of
data correction algorithms– Analytical studies: G. Cella

LISA
Other criteria
Site selection and evaluation– Site availability and acquisition risk
– Acquire land rights in reasonable time frame– Scientific suitability
– Various noise sources– Construction suitability
– Geological conditions (topography, hydrology)– Environmental considerations– Legal issues– Earthwork costs (local soil waste, labor costs)
– Operations suitability– Supporting technical infrastructure (local University support)– Nearby communities (travel time, schools, etc.)– Operation costs (power, utilities, etc.)
– Risks from environmental sources or future development – Future developments (noise sources)– Earthquakes, etc.
