WAVES 2024 – Gravitational Waves in Astrophysics: From Theory to Observations

November 18 – 22, 2024
Center for Mathematical Modeling

In this school, we will offer participants an introduction to gravitational wave modeling, emphasizing aspects such as context and scientific relevance, mathematical formalism, and implementation in HPC software. Each of these parts will be led by international experts.

The target audience is composed of postgraduate students (Master’s and Ph.D.) and/or researchers who wish to get started in the mathematical and numerical modeling of gravitational waves. Given the practical nature of the classes (computational modeling), the number of participants is limited to 35 people. If necessary, the organizing committee will select possible participants based on academic criteria, gender equality, and geographic diversity.

The School Gravitational Waves in Astrophysics: From Theory to Observations will take place in person at the Center for Mathematical Modeling (CMM), Universidad de Chile, from Monday, November 18 to Friday, November 22, 2024.
