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…
In-situ total scattering investigation of crystalline ordering in amorphous ion-beam sputtered thin films for interferometric gravitational wave detectors
Alberto Martinelli, Giulio Favaro, Giacomo Ciani +9
Amorphous tantala is an important optical material used in a number of high-precision optical applications, including gravitational wave interferometry. In this paper, we study in-…
Elastic and structural anisotropy in silica thin films for gravitational-wave detectors
Brenda Bracco, Michele Magnozzi, Stefano Colace +11
The thermal noise of mirror coatings for gravitational-wave detectors critically depends on the elastic properties of the constituent materials. Data analyses and theoretical model…
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…
Comparison of arm cavity optical losses for the two wavelengths of the Einstein Telescope gravitational wave detector
Maxime Le Jean, Jerome Degallaix, David Hofman +8
A new generation of gravitational wave detectors is currently being designed with the likely use of a different laser wavelength compared to current instruments. The estimation of…
Development of ion-beam sputtered silicon nitride thin films for low-noise mirror coatings of gravitational-wave detectors
A. Amato, M. Bazzan, G. Cagnoli +32
Brownian thermal noise of thin-film coatings is a fundamental limit for high-precision experiments based on optical resonators such as gravitational-wave interferometers. Here we p…
