From "LISA Pathfinder" to "LISA"
Stefano Vitale (University of Trento)

LISA is a space-borne gravitational wave (GW)observatory under development by the European Space Agency (ESA). It aims at the GW spectrum between a few tens of micro-Hz and a fraction of a Hz, which cannot be accessed by ground-based detectors. Such frequency range gives access to million solar mass sources at cosmological distances, and to non-transient GW astronomy of our Galaxy. LISA has been preceded by a precursor mission, LISA Pathfinder, that has successfully demonstrated the necessary space-time metrology.
The talk will review the science and achievements of LISA Pathfinder, the status of LISA, and some recent highlights on LISA science.
