WG3 Activities M.Punturo & H.Lueck WG3 - 4th ILIAS GW meeting
2
In the ILIAS proposal… WP3: An European Strategy for Future Antennas Plan the enhancement of the performances of the European gravitational wave detectors and to organise their collective operation. Objectives: To determine scientific objectives that could be attained through short term improvements, optimisation and association of detectors now available in Europe. To establish the bases for integrating existing and future gravitational wave detectors in a coherent network. To draft a plan for a European network of gravitational wave detectors at the 2010 horizon 1 2 3 WG3 - 4th ILIAS GW meeting

First Objective (in the last year)
1 First Objective (in the last year) To determine scientific objectives that could be attained through short term improvements, optimisation and association of detectors now available in Europe. Virgo+ (M.Punturo talk) Support to the reviewing activity (1st and 2nd review meetings) Laser Amplifier Monolithic suspensions Fast quadrant centering system Modulation frequency issues WG3 - 4th ILIAS GW meeting

… first objective (in the last year)
1 … first objective (in the last year) Advanced Virgo Support to the preparation of the design study (G.Losurdo) Support to the co-chairman of the optical configuration working group (A.Freise) GEO HF Preparatory discussions at the WG3 meetings WG3 - 4th ILIAS GW meeting
5
2 Second Objective To establish the bases for integrating existing and future gravitational wave detectors in a coherent network. Initial seed of the discussion Overwhelmed by the bilateral agreement between Virgo and the LSC (that includes the 3 LIGO detectors, GEO and Virgo) WG3 - 4th ILIAS GW meeting
6
Third Objective 3 To draft a plan for a European network of gravitational wave detectors at the 2010 horizon Fully achieved through the support to the enhanced and advanced detectors design Positively overwhelmed by the startup of the discussion and the support to the preliminary design activity of an European 3rd generation GW detector Support to the FP7-ET design study proposal Full session dedicated to ET WG3 - 4th ILIAS GW meeting
