摘要

在20世纪80年代和90年代之交，在从共振杆到长基线干涉仪LIGO和Virgo的大规模飞跃前夕，当时在德国、英国、法国和意大利从事干涉引力波探测领域的四个欧洲小组试图建立一个共同的战略，目的是在欧洲建立一个由三个长基线天线组成的网络。本文分析了这些早期计划失败的主要原因。在第三代引力波干涉仪的新规模飞跃前夕，试图勾勒出与当前时代的相似之处和不同之处，而欧洲诞生的爱因斯坦望远镜项目正在进行谈判。

EUROGRAV 1986–1989: the first attempts for a European Interferometric Gravitational Wave Observatory

At the turn of the 1980s and 1990s, on the eve of the great leap in scale from the resonant bars to the long-baseline interferometers LIGO and Virgo, the four European groups then engaged in the field of interferometric gravitational wave detection in Germany, UK, France and Italy tried to set up a common strategy, with the aim of establishing a network of three long-based antennas in Europe. The paper analyzes the main causes of the failure of those early plans. An attempt is made to outline the parallels and differences with the current times, on the eve of the new leap of scale toward the third generation of gravitational wave interferometers, while the negotiations for the European-born project Einstein Telescope are taking place.

期刊介绍： The purpose of this journal is to catalyse, foster, and disseminate an awareness and understanding of the historical development of ideas in contemporary physics, and more generally, ideas about how Nature works. The scope explicitly includes: - Contributions addressing the history of physics and of physical ideas and concepts, the interplay of physics and mathematics as well as the natural sciences, and the history and philosophy of sciences, together with discussions of experimental ideas and designs - inasmuch as they clearly relate, and preferably add, to the understanding of modern physics. - Annotated and/or contextual translations of relevant foreign-language texts. - Careful characterisations of old and/or abandoned ideas including past mistakes and false leads, thereby helping working physicists to assess how compelling contemporary ideas may turn out to be in future, i.e. with hindsight.
