However, it possible have at least indirect estimate of using data from large number seismometers deployed around suspended...

A system was recently implemented in the Virgo detector to cancel noise its data produced by seismic waves directly coupling with suspended test masses through gravitational interaction. The from seismometers are being filtered produce a coherent estimate of associated also known as Newtonian noise. first implementation uses time-invariant (static) Wiener filter, which is optimal filter for Newtonian-noise cancellation assuming that stationary. However, time variations form transients and...
The cancellation of noise from terrestrial gravity fluctuations, also known as Newtonian (NN), in gravitational-wave detectors is a formidable challenge. Gravity fluctuations result density perturbations associated with environmental fields, e.g., seismic and acoustic which are characterized by complex spatial correlations. Measurements these fields necessarily provide incomplete information, the question how to make optimal use available information for design noise-cancellation system. In...
