Third-generation GW detectors will detect standard sirens up to cosmological distances. This will allow us to explore the dark-energy sector of generic modifications of General Relativity. In the dark energy sector a well-know observable is the equation of state of dark energy. However, its determination with ET (and with LISA) is not expected to be significantly better than what can...
Gravitational Waves (GWs) represent a unique tool to explore the physics and the microphysics of the universe. After the GW direct detections by the LIGO/Virgo collaboration the next target of modern cosmology is the detection of primordial GWs. Even if the main probe of primordial GWs has been so far considered the Cosmic Microwave Background, we will see in this talk how we can extract...
The Transient High-Energy Sky and Early Universe Surveyor (THESEUS) is a space mission concept currently under Phase A study by ESA as candidate M5 mission, aiming at exploiting Gamma-Ray Bursts for investigating the early Universe and at providing a substantial advancement of multi-messenger and time-domain astrophysics. Through an unprecedented combination of X-/gamma-rays monitors, an...
