The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA): Current plans and prospects for quantum sensing in future space-based gravitational wave observatories
ESA’s third large class mission is a space-based gravitational wave observatory with NASA as a partner. This talk will describe the current plans for this mission, including the expected science, the instrument design, and a schedule for the development and launch. The noise floor of the system will be described and opportunities for improvement, including possible applications os quantum sensing and measurement techniques.

Independent Reliability Assessment of the Laser Transmitter for the ESA-NASA Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) Program
As part of the laser development process, NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) requested support from the NASA Engineering and Safety Center (NESC) to independently assess the Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of the LISA Laser System (LS). The independent assessment included the following tasks: (a) assess the design for weaknesses and suggest improvements to mitigate risks, (b) assess the laser reliability plan for weaknesses and suggest improvements to mitigate risks and improve effectiveness, and (c) assess the current redundancy plan on laser subsystems for weaknesses and suggest improvements to mitigate risks and improve effectiveness. The presentation will focus on the assessment findings and the current development progress of the LISA laser to meet the mission requirements with a delivery of a form, fit, and functional TRL6 laser to the LISA mission by late 2023.
