Abstract

The status of the Monolithic suspensions for the Virgo gravitational wave detector is presented here. These suspensions will be one of the most relevant upgrades of the Virgo+ detector in respect to the previous version. At the moment the two input mirrors of the interferometer have been suspended with this technique to the Superattenuator (SA).
