Figure 1:
Schematic configuration of three freely falling masses as a detector of gravitational waves. The masses are labelled $1$ , $2$ , and $3$ , their positions with respect to the origin $O$ of the coordinate system are given by vectors $xa$ $(a = 1,2,3)$ . The Euclidean separations between the masses are denoted by $La$ , where the index $a$ corresponds to the opposite mass. The unit vectors $na$ point between pairs of masses, with the orientation indicated.
