This project will develop innovative laser measurement topologies for probing the limits of gravitational force sensing. Of particular interest is the detection of gravitational waves from astrophysical sources. Technology developed in this project will be able to see gravitational forces from slow moving mass at great distances away. Implementation of this technology will enhance the terrestrial gravitational wave detectors to observe at lower frequencies. This project will ensure Australia's continued involvement in the international Advanced LIGO (Laser Interferometer Gravitational Observatory) project and guarantee Australian participation in the first direct detection of gravitational waves.

该项目将开发创新的激光测量拓扑结构，用于探测重力传感的极限。特别令人感兴趣的是从天体物理源探测引力波。在这个项目中开发的技术将能够在很远的地方看到来自缓慢移动的质量的引力。这项技术的实施将增强地球引力波探测器在较低频率下的观测能力。该项目将确保澳大利亚继续参与国际先进LIGO（激光干涉引力观测站）项目，并保证澳大利亚参与首次直接探测引力波。
