Title of workshop: Gravitational wave astronomy: The new window to the universe | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Venue: Birla Institute of Scientific Research, Jaipur | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Date: 6 March 2017 (Mon) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Participants limit: 30 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Details: This workshop would primarily target graduate students and young scientists who would be interested in exploring the interface of astronomy & astrophysics with gravitational wave (GW) physics. The workshop will feature of a small number of talks elucidating the astrophysical implications of the recent LIGO observations and the potential of upcoming GW observations as new tool of astronomy. The afternoon session will provide a hands-on training session on working with the open science data from LIGO. The aim of the workshop is two-folds: 1) to facilitate more active research in the interface area of astronomy & astrophysics and gravitational wave physics, 2) provide training to astronomers to work with the open LIGO data, thus enabling new discoveries. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
