Abstract
MY earlier publications1 have reported the concept, theory, and development of an antenna to detect gravitational radiation. These antennae are well isolated from the local environment by acoustic and electromagnetic shielding but they do respond to sufficiently large local disturbances. Effects of the local environments can, however, be minimized when two detectors are used which are a considerable distance apart. For this reason coincidence experiments at 1,661 Hz were carried out with two antennae, one situated at the University of Maryland and the other 1,000 km away at the Argonne National Laboratory.
