Rana Adhikari, professor of physics at California Institute of Technology was awarded the New Horizons Prize in fundamental physics, “for research on present and future ground-based detectors of gravitational waves.” The prize is shared with Matthew Evans and Lisa Barsotti of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Awarded by the same foundation that issues the Breakthrough Prizes, the New Horizons Prizes honors early-career achievements in physics and mathematics. 

Theoretical physicist Bala Iyer has been recently conferred an honorary doctorate by the Central University of Karnataka "in recognition of his meritorious contributions to the field of Science.” Professor Iyer has made pioneering contributions to the calculation of expected gravitational-wave signals from inspiralling binaries of black holes and neutron stars — the kind of signals that was recently detected by LIGO and Virgo.

Applications are invited for one Research Associate position in the area of Gravitational Waves. The position is funded under the CEFIPRA/IFCPAR (Indo-French Center of Promotion of Advanced Research) bilateral grant between Archana Pai, IIT Bombay and Eric Chassande-Mottin, Astro-Particule et Cosmology (APC), Paris.The position is under the project titled: “Wavelet Graph strategy for the coherent multi-detector search for compact binary coalescence”.
