Description
Joshua Smith and the Cosmic Explorer Team
We present an overview of the status of and plans for Cosmic Explorer (CE), the U.S. contribution to the third-generation gravitational-wave detector network. CE will observe gravitational-wave sources across the history of the universe. Sources that are barely detectable by today’s instruments will be resolved with incredible precision. Considerations such as the number and location of the detectors and the technology choices are discussed along with a roadmap for funding and construction CE.
