abstract = "Over the last few years, several vibration isolation projects for
gravitational wave detectors have been proposed. Some of them are
related to N-stages cascaded systems which can achieve great
factors of attenuation. However, these systems are usually very
tall, which makes it difficult to build an efficient vaccum
chamber for them. For this reason, this paper makes a comparison
between a theoretical N-stage cascaded pendula with an
experimental N-stage nested one. Preliminary results show that
their resonant modes are very similar. The ratio between the
results of experiment and theory is between 0.94 and 1.01 for the
pendular modes and systematically close to 1.05 for the rotational
modes. This result implies that an N-stage nested pendula set of
about 1.4m height can have resonant modes similar to a cascaded
pendula set of about 6.6m, which may suggests that a nested system
can be theoretically treated as a cascaded one. So, the
development of nested pendula can be an effective alternative of
vibration isolation systems for future generations of
gravitational wave detectors.",
