“…Ground based detectors of this type, based on the pioneering work of Bob Forward and colleagues (Hughes Aircraft) [68], Rai Weiss and colleagues (MIT) [107], Ron Drever and colleagues (Glasgow/Caltech)[25, 24] and Heinz Billing and colleagues (MPQ Garching) [6], will be used to observe sources whose radiation is emitted at frequencies above a few Hz, and space borne detectors, as originally envisaged by Peter Bender and Jim Faller [21, 30] at JILA will be developed for implementation at lower frequencies.…”

“…It is doubtful that those who embarked on this scientific quest would have guessed that it would take another 44 years to finally realize the goal outlined by Weiss in 1972. In parallel with Weiss's work, the group at the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics in Garching, Germany also pursued the detection of gravitational waves, using a prototype suspended interferometer (14)(15)(16).…”

“…Schemes known as external modulation (Drever 1983;Man et al 1990;Strain & Meers 1991;Gray et al 1996) and frontal modulation (Takahashi et al 1994;Regehr et al 1995;Flaminio & Heitmann 1996;Ando et al 1997) have been particularly investigated because their modulators are outside the interferometer. Thus, as opposed to internal modulation, these schemes avoid introducing losses or wavefront distortion within the interferometer (Billing et al 1979). Although quantum noise-limited sensitivity has been achieved with internal modulation at low laser power level (Shoemaker et al 1991;Stevenson et al 1993Stevenson et al , 1995, no large-scale laser interferometer detectors will use this configuration because it introduces losses and wavefront distortion.…”
