Sreenath K. Manikandan, Frank Wilczek
TL;DR
This paper shows that analyzing statistical fluctuations in resonant radiation detectors in different modes provides extra information, improving tests of the coherent state hypothesis related to gravitational wave fields.
Contribution
It introduces a method to use fluctuation analysis in resonant detectors to enhance gravitational wave state testing beyond traditional click detection.
Findings
Fluctuation analysis offers complementary information to click detection.
Refined tests of the coherent state hypothesis are possible.
Enhanced understanding of gravitational wave states through statistical methods.
Abstract
We demonstrate that the statistical fluctuations in resonant radiation detectors operating in homodyne and heterodyne modes offers additional, complementary information to that obtained from their direct operation as click detectors. We use this to refine tests of the coherent state hypothesis of interest in connection with gravitational wave fields.
