Using AI to perceive the universe in greater depth

How to form a new deep ring improves control of gravitational wave correspondents, helping astronomers to better understand the dynamics of the universe and form it.

To help astronomers study the most powerful operations of the universe, our teams used artificial intelligence to install one of the most sensitive monitoring tools.

In a paper published today in science, we present the formation of a deep episode, a new way for Amnesty International that will cancel the insurance of the gravitational wave science from the next generation. It reduces the formation of the deep loop of noise and improves the control of the observatory’s diet, which helps to fix the ingredients used to measure gravitational waves – small ripples in the fabric of place and time.

These waves are created through events such as neutron stars collision and black merger. Our way astronomers will help collect important data to understand the dynamics and formation of the universe, and test the best basic theories of physics and cosmology.

We have developed a deep circuit formation in cooperation with LIGO (Laser Observatory) managed by Caltech, and GRAN SARSO Science Institute), and have proven our way in the observatory in Levingstone, Louisiana.

Ligo measures the properties and assets of gravitational waves incredibly. But the slightest vibration can disrupt its measurements, even from the waves that collide with 100 miles on the Gulf coast. To work, LIGO depends on thousands of control systems that maintain each part in almost perfect alignment, and adapts to environmental disorders with continuous reactions.

The formation of the deep loop reduces the level of noise in the most stable and difficult feeding ring in LIGO by 30 to 100 times, which improves the stability of the very sensitive interference mirrors. Applying our way to all LIGO mirror control episodes, astronomers discover and collect data on hundreds of other events per year, can help in much more detail.

In the future, the formation of the deep loop can also be applied to many other engineering problems that involve the suppression of vibration and the abolition of noise, dynamic or unstable systems important in flying, robots and structural engineering.

Measurement across the universe

Ligo uses laser light overlapping to measure the properties of gravitational waves. By studying these characteristics, scientists can know their cause and where they came. The Observatory laser reflects the centers that were placed 4 km away, which are located in the largest vacuum rooms in the world.

Since the discovery of the gravitational waves produced by a pair of black shuttle holes, in 2015, the Albert Einstein’s general theory of the theory of relativity has discovered, Lego measurements changed our deep understanding of the universe.

With this observatory, astronomers discovered hundreds of black hole collisions and neutron stars, and studied the presence of dual black hole systems, which were seen new black holes formed in the collision of neutron stars, creating heavy elements such as gold and more.

Astronomers already know a lot about the largest and smallest black holes, but we only have limited data on black-block black holes-considered the “missing link” to understand the development of the galaxy.

To date, LIGO has not been able to monitor very few of these systems. To help astronomers to take more details and data of these phenomena, we have improved the most difficult part of the control system and expand the extent of the removal of these events.

Reducing noise and installation system

With the gravitational waves through the Ligo arms, one kilometer, they distort the distance between them, and change the distance between the mirrors on either side. These small differences are measured in length using light overlap to 10^-9 meters, which is 1/10’000 the size of the proton. Through measurements, these small mirrors in the LIGO detector should remain isolated from environmental disorder.

This requires a single system of negative mechanical isolation and another control system to actively suppress vibrations. Very little control causes mirrors oscillating, making it impossible to measure anything. But a lot of controlling the vibrations in the system, instead of suppressing them, drowns the signal in certain frequency ranges.

These vibrations, known as “control noise”, are an embarrassing barrier to improve LIGO’s ability to look at the universe. Our team designed the formation of a deep loop to bypass traditional methods, such as line -of -operating control methods currently operating, to remove the console as a meaningful reason for noise.

A more effective control system

The formation of the deep loop takes advantage of the reinforcement learning method using the frequency field bonuses and overcomes the feedback control performance on the latest model.

In the simulator LIGO, we trained a console tries to avoid noise amplification of the surveillance range used to measure gravitational waves – the range that we need in the mirror to see the vision of events such as the integration of the black hole that reaches a few hundred solar fans.

Through repeated interaction, it is guided by the frequency field bonuses, the control unit learns to suppress the control of the control scope. In other words, our control units learn to stabilize mirrors without adding harmful control noise, which reduces the levels of noise with a factor of ten or more, less than the amount of vibrations resulting from quantum fluctuations in the radiation pressure of light that reflects mirrors.

Strong performance through simulation and devices

We have tested our control units on the real LIGO system in Livingstone, Louisiana, the United States of America – they found that they also worked on devices as in simulation.

Our results show that the formation of a profound loop controls noise up to 30 to 100 times from the existing console, and the most stable and difficult feedback cycle has been canceled as a meaningful source of noise on LIGO for the first time.

In repeated experiments, we confirmed that our console remains the observatory system stable for long periods.

They are better for the nature of the universe

The formation of the deep loop pays the limits of what is currently possible in astronomical physics by a critical solution to study gravitational waves.

The application of the formation of a deep loop on the entire mirror control system in LIGO has the ability to eliminate the noise of the control system itself, which paves the way to expand its cosmic access.

In addition to improving how to measure the current gravitational wave correspondents more and faint sources, we expect our work to affect the design of future betting, both on Earth or in space – and in the end it helps to link the lost bonds throughout the universe for the first time.
