  • 5th MaNiTou Summer School on Gravitational Waves, June 29 to July 4, 2026, Nice

    5th MaNiTou Summer School on Gravitational Waves, June 29 to July 4, 2026, Nice The school will cover the emerging field of gravitational wave detection and of its scientific exploitation. Following their discovery by the LIGO/Virgo collaboration, many other gravitational wave detections are expected at the existing and future gravitational antennas. They will open up a new window of exploration, sometimes unique and sometimes complementary to what other messengers such as electromagnetic radiation (radio, IR, visible, UV, X-rays, gamma rays) and neutrinos can reveal of the physics at work in our Universe. The objective of the school is to provide the students with a solid introduction to most aspects of…
