NIOBE
Appearance
Niobe was a ground-based, cryogenic resonant bar gravitational-wave detector. The detector used a microwave parametric transducer readout to improve noise performance and detector bandwidth[1] The detector was run by David Blair at University of Western Australia in Perth. The detector ran in joint science runs from 1993-1998 with Auriga, Allegro, Explorer and Nautillus[2]
