-
A.
LIGO Scientific Collaboration
chosen
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration is an international group of scientists and institutions that built and operate the LIGO detectors and made the first direct detection of gravitational waves, confirming a key prediction of Einstein’s general relativity.
-
B.
Virgo Collaboration
The Virgo Collaboration is an international scientific consortium that operates the Virgo gravitational-wave detector in Italy, contributing key observations of cosmic events such as black hole and neutron star mergers.
-
C.
Gravitational Wave Project Office
The Gravitational Wave Project Office is a research division focused on the detection and study of gravitational waves within the Institute for Cosmic Ray Research.
-
D.
LIGO–Virgo–KAGRA network
The LIGO–Virgo–KAGRA network is an international collaboration of ground-based gravitational-wave observatories that jointly detect and analyze ripples in spacetime from cosmic events like merging black holes and neutron stars.
-
E.
LIGO (Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory)
LIGO (Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory) is a large-scale physics experiment and observatory designed to detect and study gravitational waves using highly sensitive laser interferometry.
