GWSky Workshop: Precision Gravitational Wave Astronomy: From Theory to Discovery

Gravitational wave astronomy is rapidly becoming a precision science. With upcoming detectors on the ground and in space, we will be able to detect black holes at the edge of the observable universe and test general relativity in its most extreme regimes. However, as the measurements become more sensitive, so does the challenge of interpreting them. Small anomalies in the data could point to new physics—or just reflect environmental effects, modeling uncertainties, or instrumental noise. This workshop, part of the ERC synergy GWSky project, will bring together researchers working across theory, simulations, and observations to tackle this challenge, and build the tools and frameworks needed to make sense of future discoveries.

This workshop is by invitation only.
