Description

Many of the astrophysical sources and violent phenomena observed in our Universe are potential emitters of gravitational waves and high energy neutrinos. Both these probes are cosmic messengers that may escape much denser media than photons. LIGO and Virgo scientific collaborations have carried out joint searches for gravitational waves and high energy neutrinos from IceCube and ANTARES neutrino detectors. I report the results of these coincident analyses and present plans and expectations for the Advanced Detector Era.
