The advanced Virgo + project: improving the sensitivity of the gravitational-wave detector Virgo

Second generation gravitational wave (GW) detectors opened the era of gravitational wave astronomy with the fist GW detection in 2015 and are now approaching their design sensitivity. During the 3 past observation runs, they detected 15 GW signals produced by the merging of binary compact objects, providing a wealth of scientific results ranging from the general relativity, to astrophysics and cosmology.
