Milli-Hertz Frontier: Compact Detectors Find Gravitational Wave ‘Blind Spot’
A new compact approach to a long-standing gap in gravitational wave astronomy Two UK universities have unveiled a ground-based detector concept designed to listen to gravitational waves in the elusive milli-Hertz range, a band long considered inaccessible from Earth. By combining optical resonator technology with mature atomic clock techniques, researchers at the Universities of Birmingham…

Milli-Hertz frontier: Compact detectors unlock gravitational wave ‘mid-band’
The new mid-band detector idea A collaboration between the Universities of Birmingham and Sussex has unveiled a compact, ground-based detector concept that targets the elusive milli-Hertz gravitational wave band. By combining advanced optical cavity technology with atomic clock references, the project aims to fill the long-standing gap in the gravitational wave spectrum between terrestrial interferometers…

Milli-Hertz Frontier: Compact Detectors Expand Gravitational Wave Access
Overview: A new approach to the gravitational wave mid-band The scientific community has long sought to fill the gravitational wave spectrum’s mid-band, a stretch between high-frequency terrestrial detectors and low-frequency pulsar timing arrays. Researchers from the University of Birmingham and the University of Sussex have proposed and developed a compact, ground-based detector that targets the…
