Registration is now open for the ISAPP Summer School "GRAVITATIONAL WAVES: from theory to detection", scheduled from July 7 to July 18, 2025, at the Erwin Schrödinger International Institute for Mathematics and Physics in Vienna.
This astroparticle physics graduate school will cover important and timely topics connected to gravitational waves taught by internationally renowned experts. The primary focus will be on understanding how gravitational waves emerge from the theory of general relativity and how these can be detected using modern technologies.
Core topics include:
Introduction to Gravitational Waves / Basic Theory
Sources of Gravitational Waves
Gravitational Wave Detectors
Data Analysis and Signal Processing
Gravitational Wave Cosmology
Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background
Tests of General Relativity
Multimessenger Astronomy
Quantum Sensing in Gravitational Wave Detection
Public Outreach and Education
Confirmed lecturers include:
Clifford M. Will (University of Florida)
Michela Mapelli (University of Heidelberg)
Tania Regimbau (Annecy, LAPP)
Costantino Pacilio (University of Milano Bicocca)
Jessica Steinlechner (University of Maastricht)
Elena Cuoco (Bologna University)
Lijing Shao (KAVLI – Peking University)
Noemi Frusciante (University of Napoli)
