The ipython notebook [[https://github.com/CaltechExperimentalGravity/OptimalGWextraction/blob/master/PonderSqueeze/40mOptickleModel/40mBHD.ipynb|located here]] describes the noise in a simple balanced homodyne detector consisting only of a local oscillator, a beamsplitter, and two photodiodes. The noise is computed with an Optickle model and a heuristic analytic description is given.

Simple BHD

The ipython notebook located here describes the noise in a simple balanced homodyne detector consisting only of a local oscillator, a beamsplitter, and two photodiodes. The noise is computed with an Optickle model and a heuristic analytic description is given.
