Description
Future third-generation gravitational-wave detectors aim to improve sensitivity by at least an order of magnitude. In this context, enhanced low-frequency performance is crucial for the detection of high-mass and high-redshift systems, improved source localization, timely alerts for electromagnetic follow-up, and the observation of predicted sources such as rotating pulsars. In this contribution, we present ongoing simulation efforts aimed at the development and characterization of the Pendulum-Inverted Pendulum. We provide transfer functions and noise projections supporting this novel prototype seismic filter for low-frequency noise mitigation. This approach aims to reduce the height and complexity of current attenuation systems, resulting in a more compact solution while lowering costs and installation works.
