The 2025 Gravitational-Wave Advanced Detector Workshop (GWADW) occurs on May 18 to 23 at the Hilton Cocoa Beach, Florida, Oceanfront hotel. May 18 (Sunday) is the arrivals day, with an evening reception. We plan to end Friday, May 23rd. The workshop will provide a forum for exchange of ideas, novel concepts and unpublished results in the interdisciplinary research on the detection of gravitational waves (GW). The workshop scope is broad:
(1) The ultimate configuration and performance of existing detectors such as A#, Voyager, Virgo_nEXT, and the KAGRA upgrade.
(2) Cosmic Explorer and the Einstein Telescope.
(3) LISA, the first space-based detector.
(4) Follow-on space-based detectors.
(5) Exotic and out-of-the box ideas.
It is very timely to have a workshop bringing together leading experts in experimental approaches to gravitational-wave detection. A willingness to explore novel ideas is also crucial to realize improved detectors. We invite all scientists interested in instrument science of gravitational-wave detection to attend the workshop. The program will be organized to allow for a range of interactions and discussions, as well as opportunities for junior participants to share their work.
