UofG researchers prepare for next gravitational wave observing run
Published: 30 June 2023
Researchers from the University of Glasgow’s School of Physics & Astronomy are preparing for the next observing run of the international LIGO–Virgo–KAGRA (LVK) network of gravitational-wave detectors. The LVK collaboration consists of scientists across the globe who use a network of observatories—LIGO in the United States, Virgo in Europe, and KAGRA in Japan—to search for gravitational waves, or ripples in space-time, generated by colliding black holes and other extreme cosmic events.
