Description
The science goals of ET rely on achieving astrophysically interesting sensitivity below 5Hz. This presents an enormous technical challenge, and it was a major focus of the recent ET Instrument Science Board workshop. The question is broken down into several parts: we looked at the key noise-drivers in current detectors and attempt to identify strategies to mitigate them by design in ET. This summary of the workshop will identify some interesting points and unanswered questions.
