LIGO Detector Characterization in the Second and Third Parts of the Fourth Observing Run

J. Glanzer, A. F. Helmling-Cornell, A. Calafat +244

LIGO detector characterization efforts enabled the confident detection of gravitational waves from hundreds of compact binary coalescences during the fourth observing run. Reliable…

LIGO A: Detector Design and Science Prospects Beyond A+

L. Sun, K. Kuns, B. J. J. Slagmolen +1153

We present the LIGO A detector concept, an upgrade for the LIGO observatories based on room-temperature interferometers beyond the fifth observing run (O5). Building on th…

Site selection for the Laser Interferometer Lunar Antenna (LILA)

James Trippe, Ronald Polidan, Teviet Creighton +6

The Earth's Moon presents a uniquely advantageous environment for detecting astrophysical gravitational waves (GWs), particularly in the decihertz regime. The Laser Interferometer…

Unveiling the Gravitational Universe at μ-Hz Frequencies

Alberto Sesana, Natalia Korsakova, Manuel Arca Sedda +31

We propose a space-based interferometer surveying the gravitational wave (GW) sky in the milli-Hz to -Hz frequency range. By the 2040s', the -Hz frequency band, bracketed in…
