[News] ICTS summer school on gravitational wave astronomy

[P. Ajith]

Dear all,

Applications are now invited for the 2017 ICTS summer school on
gravitational wave astronomy. We would appreciate if you could bring this
in to the attention of potential participants. The deadline for online
registration is 20 May 2017.

This year’s school will focus on the physics and astrophysics of compact
objects, in particular, of neutron stars. The lectures will be given by
world leading experts. The school will involve four graduate-level courses:

1) White Dwarfs, Neutron Stars and Black Holes: G. Srinivasan (Visiting
Professor, Indian Institute of Astrophysics)
2) Tides in binary star systems: Tanja Hinderer (Junior Scientist at Max
Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics)
3) Gravitational waves from neutron stars: Nils Andersson (Professor and
Head of Applied Mathematics at the University of Southampton)
4) Formation and evolution of compact binaries: Tomasz Bulik (Professor and
Vice-Director, Institute of Astronomy at University of Warsaw)

The school is primarily meant for graduate students and postdocs in
gravitational wave physics, astrophysics and related fields. A small number
of highly motivated senior undergraduates can also be considered.

Thanks and best regards,
P Ajith, Bala Iyer, K. G. Arun (Organizers)
