An animation that describes how Virgo detects gravitational waves with interferometers. The LIGO detectors work with the same principle. Animation: Marco Kraan, Nikhef

This is an excellent tutorial it explains the basics very well then more and more complexity is added to provide enough detail but without oversimplifying things

Such extreme precision along with amazing design. Mega respect, from me, for the scientists and manufacturers involved.

This is the best explanation of LIGO I have ever seen. Period! Thank you very much!

That is hands down the best explanation that I have ever seen!

Fantastic explanation. Id always thought it was just 2 perpendicular beams to measure distances using the time travelled muktiplied hy the soeed of light, never really considering the external influences that would cause false readings. Impressive to say the least

Gravitational waves can easily pass through the mirrors.Gravitational waves are not similar to electromagnetic waves, that can not pass through metals etc.

Achei interessante isso. Alguém poderia explicar isso na prática?

The LIGO in the US is the practical application. The gravity waves produces tiny vibrations. These tiny vibrations cause the length of the fabry perot arms to change causing a signal to be detected by the optical sensor
