[News] ICTS summer school & workshop on GW astrophysics, Bangalore (11 May - 5 June)

[P Ajith]

Dear colleagues,

Applications are invited for the ICTS summer school on gravitational-wave
astronomy 2020 <https://www.icts.res.in/program/gws2020>, which will be
held at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences
<https://www.icts.res.in/>, TIFR, Bangalore from 11 to 22 May 2020. This
year’s summer school will focus on the multimessenger modeling of compact
binary mergers, involving four graduate-level courses on numerical
relativity,  numerical hydrodynamics, and the modeling of short gamma-ray
bursts and kilonovae. The school is part of the annual ICTS summer school
series on GW astronomy <https://www.icts.res.in/program/gws>.

The school is meant for graduate students and young researchers working on
gravitational-wave astronomy & astrophysics, and related fields. A small
number of highly motivated advanced undergraduate/masters students (with
the relevant background) will also be admitted. If you are interested,
please apply online (deadline: Feb 28).

This year, the school will be followed by a two-week-long workshop (25 May
- 5 June) that focuses on compact binary merger physics and multimessenger
astrophysics. The workshop is meant for active researchers working on
gravitational wave astronomy, astrophysics, and related areas. Applications
are accepted through the same program portal
<https://www.icts.res.in/program/gws2020> (deadline: Feb 28).

Best wishes,
P. Ajith, K. G. Arun, Sukanta Bose, Bala R. Iyer, Resmi Lekshmi and B
Satyaprakash
