We provide an introduction to the science case for advanced interferometric gravitational wave detectors, which are currently being realized in the world and in the second half of the present decade will achieve a sensitivity ten times larger than first generation instruments. Starting from the results obtained with first generation instruments, this paper will motivate the experimental effort and will provide an introduction to the science that will be harvested by second generation detectors.

Abstract

We provide an introduction to the science case for advanced interferometric gravitational wave detectors, which are currently being realized in the world and in the second half of the present decade will achieve a sensitivity ten times larger than first generation instruments. Starting from the results obtained with first generation instruments, this paper will motivate the experimental effort and will provide an introduction to the science that will be harvested by second generation detectors.
