• Abstract:
  After the first gravitational wave detection on 14th September 2015 by the Ligo interferometers there is a growing interest in the whole field. The discovery of the signal emitted by binary black hole systems has been detected three times in slightly more than one year. Nowadays the Advanced Virgo detector is reaching a good sensitivity and we are facing the second science run with a Ligo and Virgo joint search that could open even more astrophysical implications, and in the next future the Kagra detector will be part of this game. In this talk I will describe the basic principles of gravitational waves up to their detections. A particular focus will be dedicated to the present status of the Advanced Virgo detector, and the foreseen evolutions that will be implemented before the next science run (O3) and beyond.
