We study the observation of polarized stochastic gravitational-wave background (SGWB) in pulsar-timing-array experiments. The time residual for an observed pulsar is formulated as a line-of-sight integral that incorporates effects term, from which we construct correlation function between pair pulsars terms overlap reduction functions (ORFs) SGWB intensity and polarization anisotropies. Our formulation provides numerical scheme computing ORFs high multipole moments, lowest-moment linear are...

Modern ground-based gravitational wave (GW) detectors require a complex interferometer configuration with multiple coupled optical cavities.Since achieving the resonances of arm cavities is most challenging among lock acquisition processes, scheme called length stabilization (ALS) had been employed for cavities.We designed new type ALS, which compatible interferometers having long arms like next generation GW detectors.The features ALS are that control simpler than those previous ones and it...

Even though the sensitivity of direct dark matter search experiments reaches level about 10−45cm2, no confident signal has been observed. We point out that, if is a vector boson, null result in may be due to destructive effects dark-matter–nucleon elastic scattering. illustrate scenario using modified Higgs portal model that includes exotic quarks. The significant cancellation can occur for certain mass gap between new heavy quark and matter. As result, spin-independent scattering so...
