N2 - The Einstein Telescope (ET), a proposed European ground-based
gravitational-wave detector of third-generation, is an evolution of
second-generation detectors such as Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo, and
KAGRA which could be operating in the mid 2030s. ET will explore the
universe with gravitational waves up to cosmological distances. We
discuss its main scientific objectives and its potential for discoveries
in astrophysics, cosmology and fundamental physics.
