truncated icosahedral gravitational-wave antenna [¦trəŋ‚kād·əd ī‚käs·ə¦hē·drəl ‚grav·ə¦tā·shən·əl ′wāv an‚ten·ə]

(engineering)

A resonant-mass antenna for detecting gravitational radiation in which the shape of the mass is a truncated icosahedron, which is much more efficient for this purpose than a cylinder. Abbreviated TIGA.
