In this Letter, we present the design and performance of the frequency-dependent squeezed vacuum source that will be used for the broadband quantum noise reduction of the Advanced Virgo Plus gravitational-wave detector in the upcoming observation run. The frequency-dependent squeezed field is generated by a phase rotation of a frequency-independent squeezed state through a 285 m long, high-finesse, near-detuned optical resonator. With about 8.

One hundred and forty three freeze-dried Longissimus muscles (LM) were scanned by NIRS (1100-2498nm). Modified Partial Least Squares models were obtained.
