Abstract

Paper presented at the conference by E Majorana ; The gravitational wave detector Virgo commissioning started in autumn 2003. The main commissioning goal is to reach stable operation at the design sensitivity, significantly extended to the low frequency range starting from 10 Hz. However, the Collaboration's efforts during the last commissioning phase will also be aimed at the data exchange with other detectors operating with comparable sensitivity. The present status of the detector and the short term planning are outlined in this paper.
