Description

The LIGO, Virgo, and KAGRA (LVK) Collaboration has significantly advanced our understanding of the universe by detecting gravitational waves from a variety of astrophysical sources. This talk will provide an overview of the most recent observations and discoveries made by the LVK detectors. Highlights will include the detection of binary black hole and neutron star mergers, insights into the population properties of these compact objects, and the implications for our understanding of stellar evolution and cosmology. Additionally, the talk will explore ongoing searches for yet-to-be-discovered sources, offering a window into the future of gravitational wave astronomy.
