Description
The LIGO, Virgo and KAGRA collaboration (LVK) are already proposing upgrades and observing plans for the decade between the 5th observing run (~2027) and the advent of third generation detectors in 2035. In this talk I will discuss the prospects, with the planned Post-O5 upgrades and beyond, of observing compact binary coalescences at cosmological scales. Given the current observations, I will discuss the expected rate of detections and low-latency localization prospects. Finally, I will focus on the prospects of measuring the Hubble constant with GW sources accompanied (and not) by an electromagnetic counterpart. I will show that with just one year of Post-O5 observation we could be able to constrain the expansion rate of the Universe today at a sub-percent level precision.
