Gravitational waves (GWs) are the newest tool for exploring the Universe. Advanced Virgo and Advanced LIGO have opened a new window on the Universe, detecting GW signals in the Hz-kHz frequency range. The Pulsar Timing Array experiments have just announced the detection of GWs in the nano-Hz frequency range.
A new generation of GW interferometric observatories is under preparation and will...
The detection of Gravitational Waves (GWs) opened a new window on the Universe. The combined observation of GW and electromagnetic signals from astrophysical phenomena in 2017 signed the beginning of the Multi-messenger Astronomy.
While LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaborations keep on detect GWs, a new generation of GW observatories is under preparation and will take over in the next decade, allowing...
The observation of gravitational waves by the LIGO/Virgo collaboration has opened a new window on the Universe. In this decade, however, these experiments will reach the limit of their capabilities, and a new generation of ground-based detectors is being planned. In Europe, this has led to the proposal of the Einstein Telescope. With order of magnitude improvement in the sensitivity, Einstein...
