Mephisto Applications in Gravitational Waves Detection

In terms of low output noise and ultra-narrow linewidth requirements, few would argue that gravitational wave detection (GWD) based on long path interferometry currently represents the most demanding application for narrow linewidth CW lasers – even more than atom cooling. Successful first detection of gravitational waves was recently performed at the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) that operates at two sites in the US, one in Livingston, Louisiana, and another in Hanford, Washington.
