Experimental verification of a single transducer back-action evading measurement scheme for a gravitational wave detector

We have demonstrated classical squeezed states which result from a back-action evading measurement on a mechanical harmonic oscillator. This is experimental demonstration of a technique which can be used to explore the “standard” quantum limits of measurement.
