Introduction: Subsidies in Euregio Meuse-Rhine and future opportunities
In order to find optimal position for the Einstein-Telescope (ET) in the Euregio Meuse-Rhine (EMR), a detailed understanding of the geological and structural conditions, both on the ground and subsurface is crucial. The short term (during excavation) and long-term performance of the ET underground infrastructures are primarily depended on the geological and structural conditions of the ground....
Hydro geophysical Characterization – Active & Passive Seismic
The requirements for the Einstein Telescope challenge geologists to come up with representations of the subsurface as accurate as possible. A state-of-the-art way are digital 3D models of the subsurface. Various measurements and interpretation of geological observations (e.g. geophysical methods, outcrop studies) serve as input for these models. However, one must also consider the inherent...
Passive Seismic with Medium Aperture Arrays in Limburg
Wind turbines emit seismic signals due to the rotation of the blades and the movement of the tower. Seismic signals radiated from wind turbines are known to interfere with operational seismic monitoring of natural and induced seismicity. With regard to the Einstein Telescope and the design of the passive and active vibration isolation systems, the seismic radiation from wind turbines poses a...
The variations in ambient noise levels, subsurface elastic properties and surface deformation can affect the performance of Einstein Telescope (ET) in various ways. Therefore, the present study aims at providing an overview of integrated geophysical and remote sensing approaches in the Belgian side of prospective ET installation region, an advanced and super sensitive Gravitational-wave...
