The gravitational wave network of interferometers on Earth has completed three successful observing runs, detecting nearly a hundred events. Almost all detected gravitational wave signals are from the coalescence of compact binaries composed of black holes (BH/BH). A few others have been associated with the coalescence of neutron star/neutron star or mixed black hole/neutron star pairs. The...
Einstein Telescope (ET) is the next generation gravitational wave observatory. In this talk I will review the current status and plans related to its realization. I will also summarize the science potential and possible discoveries that the ET will enable.
Baikal-GVD is a water Cherenkov neutrino telescope under construction in Lake Baikal that annually increases its detection volume. The winter expedition 2024 concluded at 110 strings with 3 960 optical modules underwater. The number of operationally and functionally independent sub-arrays (clusters) increased to 14. The modular design of the detector allows for data collection while being in...
