linkPfeil Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO)
The LIGO interferometers in Livingston, LA, and Hanford, WA, are currently the most sensitive gravitational wave detectors in the world. There is a complete data sharing agreement between LIGO and GEO600, which is jointly operated by our Laser Interferometry and ... [more]
linkPfeil Einstein@Home
The AEI's gravitational wave group is taking part in the development of Einstein@Home. Einstein@Home is a project developed to search data from the LIGO and GEO 600 detectors for gravitational waves coming from rapidly rotating neutron stars. Einstein@Home will allow ... [more]
linkPfeil Louisiana State University
LSU has become a major center of gravity research in the US, it now hosts two theory groups and an experimental group working on gravitational wave detectors. A number of former AEI members have moved to LSU in 2003, where Ed Seidel has taken the position of the ... [more]
linkPfeil Mexico Code tests Collaboration - Comparing Apples with Apples
More formulations of the Einstein equations have been proposed for numerical relativity than there are people who might implement them - we can only hope that at least one can be used for stable and accurate evolutions. The "Mexican solution" is an ... [more]
linkPfeil Cactus Computational Toolkit
Cactus is an open source problem solving environment designed for scientists and engineers. Its modular structure easily enables parallel computation across different architectures and collaborative code development between different groups. Cactus originated in the ... [more]
linkPfeil Gravitational Wave Detector GEO600
The ground-based detector GEO600 is built in a German-British collaboration comprising AEI, Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics (Garching), University of Hannover, Laser Zentrum Hannover, University of Glasgow, and Cardiff University. We are part of the LIGO Science ... [more]
linkPfeil eLISA: evolved Laser Interferometer Space Antenna
For the space detector eLISA the Institute is part of an international project of ESA . Two of the ten European members of the eLISA Working Team are from the AEI. For LISA Pathfinder, the technology demonstration space mission, we are Co-Principal ... [more]
linkPfeil Special Research Area "Gravitational Wave Astronomy"
Gravitational wave activities in Germany are funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) through the Sonderforschungsbereich Transregio (SFB/TR 7) “Gravitational Wave Astronomy” comprising the Universities of Tübingen, Jena, and Hannover and the Max Planck ... [more]
linkPfeil Special Research Area "Space-Time-Matter"
The special research area entitled Space-Time-Matter funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) is a collaboration between the divisions 'Geometric Analysis and Gravitation' and 'Quantum Gravity and Unified Theories' of AEI, the Humboldt University and the ... [more]
linkPfeil Hermes: A semantic conversion tool from LaTeX to XML+MathML+Unicode
Hermes is a research prototype.
This tool is designed to help scientists e-publish their LaTeX works on the web. Hermes transforms an arbitrary LaTeX document, containing arbitrary mathematical expressions, into an XML file which is suitable for library archiving, ... [more]
