GWADW2023 - Gravitational-Wave Advanced Detector Workshop

Scientific Programme

The workshop aims at covering work currently being done on GW detectors in view of the next and future observations with current infrastructures, as well as studies and Research and Development for observatories planned for the next decade. This edition emphasizes the low frequency detection band, a challenge for current detectors which may become crucial for the future. Two poster sessions are planned to allow informal discussion.

For contribution submission the following subjects have been identified, matching the sessions in the program.
