Description

Optomechanical designs for third-generation gravitational-wave detectors are currently under development. The input optics for 3G detectors will be a major consideration for the infrastructure and facilities costs. In this talk we will discuss the requirements for input optics for Cosmic Explorer, and consider some optical designs which satisfy those requirements with minimal facilities costs.
