They were massive instruments that weighed tons and required serious work to construct and months to perform the measurements. Now Prof. Reginald Cahill, an Australian scientist at Flinders University in Adelaide, has brought fiber optics to the field of interferometry and has, with a relatively simple set-up, detected not only variations of the earth's speed with regard to the background of space, but also gravitational waves, a kind of 'turbulence' in space. The instrument made by Cahill's group of physicists is extremely small and light, in sharp contrast with its historical predecessors. It can be constructed for just over 1100 dollars - Cahill's paper provides... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ http://blog.hasslberger.com/2007/07/optical_fiber_interferometer_d.html -- Powered by Movable Type Version 3.2 http://www.sixapart.com/movabletype/ -- No virus found in this incoming message.
