Description
Tilt coupling is one of the limiting factors for the low-frequency sensitivity of gravitational-wave detectors. Implementing inertial seismic isolation of the suspension platform in all 6 DoF makes it quiet in all degrees of freedom simultaneously and minimises coupling of all DoF to interferometer length. In this poster, we discuss the potential improvement in the sensitivity of GW detectors and present the current status of the 6D project.
