Abstract

We present the results of our experimental characterisation of path length errors, caused by beamwalk over the surface topography of laser mirrors. These path length errors can have a major influence on the accuracy of the LISA measurement instrument in Astrium’s alternative payload concept with In-Field Pointing. Our measurement setup uses a highly sensitive heterodyne interferometer for measuring the path length error amplitudes, generated by the topography of a moving, λ/10 test mirror.
