Advanced Virgo during the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA fourth observing run

From April 10, 2024 to November 18, 2025 Advanced Virgo participated in the fourth observing run of the network of gravitational-wave detectors, together with Advanced LIGO and KAGRA. For this observing run Advanced Virgo has completed its design optical configuration with the installation of a signal recycling mirror. In this paper we describe the challenges encountered in commissioning this optical configuration, alongside the other upgrades performed between the third and fourth observing run. The Virgo detector operated with a 68.9% duty cycle and with an angle-averaged median range to binary neutron star mergers of 53 Mpc.

Joint Analysis Method on Gravitational Waves and Low-Energy Neutrinos to Detect Core-Collapse Supernovae

Core-collapse supernovae produce copious low-energy neutrinos and are also predicted to radiate gravitational waves. These two messengers can give us information regarding the explosion mechanism. The gravitational wave detection from these events are still elusive even with the already advanced detectors. Here we give a concise and timely introduction to a new method that combines triggers from GW and neutrino observatories; more details shall be given in a forthcoming paper [1]. Keywords: multimessenger, supernova, core-collapse, low-energy neutrino, gravitational wave.
