TALK Title: Introduction to astrophysics and gravitational waves, and order of magnitude estimates by Cole Miller

ORGANIZERS : Parameswaran Ajith, K. G. Arun and Bala Iyer

DATES : Monday 29 Jun, 2015 - Friday 10 Jul, 2015

VENUE : ICTS Seminar Room , IISc Campus, Bangalore

DESCRIPTION :
Albert
Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity, which is celebrating its
centenary this year, predicts the existence of gravitational waves.
Gravitational waves are freely propagating oscillations in the
spacetime. The first direct detection of gravitational waves is expected
to happen in the next few years by large laser interferometric
detectors. Apart from the upcoming detectors in USA, Europe and Japan,
there is an ongoing proposal to build a gravitational-wave observatory
in India.

This summer school on Gravitational Wave Astronomy aims
to train students and young researchers in the emerging area of
gravitational-wave astronomy. The school will involve four
graduate-level courses on different topics of gravitational-wave
astronomy. The lectures will be given by five leading experts on these
topics. The school is mainly intended for graduate students working (or
starting to work) on gravitational-wave astronomy, high-energy
astrophysics, cosmology and related areas. The school can also
accommodate a few postdoctoral researchers working on (or planning to
work on) these areas and a few highly motivated senior undergraduates.
