제목: Improving the sensitivity of Gravitational Wave

detectors: from the Birth of GW Astronomy to

future detectors

초록:

In 2015, after many years of scientific and technological efforts, the first direct observation of a gravitational wave (GW) event was possible thanks to the second generation of GW detectors, such as Virgo. Nevertheless, further improvements are fundamental to increase the amount of detectable sources and the volume of observable Universe. For this reason, new techniques should be developed and implemented for increasing the sensitivity of current detectors. In addition, new and more sensitive detectors should be designed and built. In this talk, the most important scientific achievements of the second-generation detectors will be presented. The design of the second generation Advanced Virgo with the fundamental technology upgrades that made possible the first direct observation of GWs will be described. The current and future upgrades before next observing runs will be also presented. I will conclude by briefly describing the future ground-based detector of third generation, the Einstein Telescope, and the future space-based detector LISA (Laser Interferometer Space Antenna).

Title: Improving the sensitivity of Gravitational Wave

detectors: from the Birth of GW Astronomy to

future detectors

Abstract:

In 2015, after many years of scientific and technological efforts, the first direct observation of a gravitational wave (GW) event was possible thanks to the second generation of GW detectors, such as Virgo. Nevertheless, further improvements are fundamental to increase the amount of detectable sources and the volume of observable Universe. For this reason, new techniques should be developed and implemented for increasing the sensitivity of current detectors. In addition, new and more sensitive detectors should be designed and built. In this talk, the most important scientific achievements of the second-generation detectors will be presented. The design of the second generation Advanced Virgo with the fundamental technology upgrades that made possible the first direct observation of GWs will be described. The current and future upgrades before next observing runs will be also presented. I will conclude by briefly describing the future ground-based detector of third generation, the Einstein Telescope, and the future space-based detector LISA (Laser Interferometer Space Antenna).

Language : This talk will be given in English.
