DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Joris van Heijningen (UCLouvain)\nThe future of Grav
 itational Waves (GWs) is bright. LIGO and Virgo have detected more than 70
  signals from black hole and/or neutron star mergers. All measured signals
  come in-band at around 30 Hz as suspension control noise\, fueled by many
  cross couplings between angular and translational degrees of freedom\, is
  dominant below 30 Hz. It is impossible to know\, but exciting to imagine 
 what signals are lurking there once we can access this regime.\n\nEinstein
  Telescope (ET) will be an underground and cryogenic detector sensitive to
  GWs down to 2 Hz. New sensor development is underway for ET. We believe t
 he cryogenic environment can be used in combination with superconducting m
 aterials to open up pathways to low-loss actuators and sensor mechanics. \
 n\nThe Cryogenic Superconducting Inertial Sensor (CSIS) revolutionizes the
  (cryogenic) inertial sensor field by obtaining a displacement sensitivity
  at 0.5 Hz of 3 orders of magnitude better than state-of-art. Not only wil
 l it help ET detect GWs from 2 Hz onwards\, CSIS will also be deployed on 
 the Moon. The recently published Lunar GW Antenna (LGWA) concept uses an i
 nertial sensor to probe surface motion as a result of the GW excitation of
  the Moon's normal body modes (fundamental just below 1 mHz and many other
  modes and their harmonics at higher frequencies). In summary\, CSIS will 
 be the world's most sensitive low-frequency inertial sensor and\, when dep
 loyed in ET and on the Moon\, will enable GW science from 1 mHz to 10 Hz.\
