Control strategy to limit duty cycle impact of earthquakes on the LIGO gravitational-wave detectors

Advanced gravitational-wave detectors such as the laser interferometer gravitational-wave observatories (LIGO) require an unprecedented level of isolation from the ground. When in operation, they measure motion of less than 10-19 m. Strong teleseismic events like earthquakes disrupt the proper funct...
