We present a method of actively suppressing any such instability through application ofKeywords: Electrostatic drive; Gravitational wave; Interferometer; Parametric instabilityDamping parametric instabilities in future gravitational wave detectors by means of electrostatic actuators201110.1016/j.physleta.2010.12.0322016-02-24
