Advanced Virgo during the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA fourth observing run
Virgo Collaboration, F Acernese, A Agapito +546
From April 10, 2024 to November 18, 2025 Advanced Virgo participated in the fourth observing run of the network of gravitational-wave detectors, together with Advanced LIGO and KAG…
High-Stability Deformable Mirrors for Correcting Non-Axisymmetric Residual Aberrations in Thermal Compensation of Future Gravitational Wave Interferometers
Luciano Antonio Corubolo, Matteo Lorenzini, Lorenzo Aiello +9
In gravitational wave detectors, optical aberrations arise mainly from laser absorption in coatings and production process defects in the optics along the laser path. If left uncor…
Advanced Virgo Plus for O5 -- Design Report Overview
F. Acernese, A. Agapito, D. Agarwal +578
This document presents an overview of the design, implementation, and expected performance of the Advanced Virgo Plus (AdV+) upgrades in view of the O5 observing run. Following the…
Virgo Detector Characterization and Data Quality: tools
F. Acernese, M. Agathos, A. Ain +491
Detector characterization and data quality studies -- collectively referred to as {\em DetChar} activities in this article -- are paramount to the scientific exploitation of the jo…
Virgo Detector Characterization and Data Quality: results from the O3 run
F. Acernese, M. Agathos, A. Ain +491
The Advanced Virgo detector has contributed with its data to the rapid growth of the number of detected gravitational-wave (GW) signals in the past few years, alongside the two Adv…
A Systematic Error in the Internal Friction Measurement of Coatings for Gravitational Waves Detectors
Alex Amato, Diana Lumaca, Elisabetta Cesarini +9
Low internal friction coatings are key components of advanced technologies such as optical atomic clocks and high-finesse optical cavity and often lie at the forefront of the most…

F. Acernese, M. Agathos, A. Ain +491
The Advanced Virgo detector has contributed with its data to the rapid growth of the number of detected gravitational-wave signals in the past few years, alongside the two LIGO ins…
The Virgo O3 run and the impact of the environment
F. Acernese, M. Agathos, A. Ain +486
Sources of geophysical noise (such as wind, sea waves and earthquakes) or of anthropogenic noise impact ground-based gravitational-wave interferometric detectors, causing transient…
Measurement and simulation of mechanical and optical properties of sputtered amorphous SiC coatings
G. Favaro, A. Amato, F. Arciprete +15
In this work We report on the extensive characterization of amorphous silicon carbide (a-SiC) coatings prepared by physical deposition methods. We compare the results obtained on t…
A standard siren measurement of the Hubble constant from GW170817 without the electromagnetic counterpart
M. Fishbach, R. Gray, I. Magaña Hernandez +316
We perform a statistical standard siren analysis of GW170817. Our analysis does not utilize knowledge of NGC 4993 as the unique host galaxy of the optical counterpart to GW170817.…
Calibration of Advanced Virgo and Reconstruction of the Gravitational Wave Signal h(t) during the Observing Run O2
Virgo Collaboration, F. Acernese, T. Adams +281
In August 2017, Advanced Virgo joined Advanced LIGO for the end of the O2 run, leading to the first gravitational waves detections with the three-detector network. This paper descr…
