Large scientific infrastructures must integrate sustainability into their strategies, therefore including detailed plans to reduce their environmental impact.
Reducing the environmental impact generated by research is an aim already reflected as main objective of major current scientific projects. Scientific infrastructures have to deal with the following challenges related with...
Research aimed at addressing profound scientific questions about the universe has driven the development of cutting-edge detectors with exceptional performance, achieved through an unwavering pursuit of sensitivity and resolution. We have successfully applied technologies originally developed for X-ray and gamma-ray space observations-including multipixel superconducting microcalorimeters,...
In this talk, I will provide an overview of the history of LIGO and Virgo, focusing on key advancements in precision measurement and the challenges faced by these kilometer-scale interferometers that make gravitational-wave detections possible. I will summarize the latest results from the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA detectors, starting with the groundbreaking first detection in 2015, and discuss their...
