Description

Many important experiments are now limited by quantum mechanical noise, notably including gravitational wave detectors and axion searches. I will review the basic theory of quantum noise in these systems, and highlight a few ways to get beyond naive quantum limits in order to probe deeper into uncharted parameter space.
