Precision Gravitational Wave Astronomy: From Theory to Discovery July 27-31 in Sexten, Italy
Precision Gravitational Wave Astronomy: From Theory to Discovery July 27-31 in Sexten, Italy With upcoming detectors on the ground and in space, we will be able to detect black holes at the edge of the observable universe and test general relativity in its most extreme regimes. However, as the measurements become more sensitive, so does the challenge of interpreting them. Small anomalies in the data could point to new physics—or just reflect environmental effects, modeling uncertainties, or instrumental noise. This workshop, part of the ERC synergy GWSky project, will bring together researchers working across theory, simulations, and observations to tackle this challenge, and build the tools and frameworks needed to…

NEHOP 2027 – New Horizons on Primordial Black Hole Physics, June 14-18, 2027 at University of Patras
NEHOP 2027 – New Horizons on Primordial Black Hole Physics, June 14-18, 2027 at University of Patras This workshop event aims to nurture discussions and bring together experts on the broad topic of Primordial Black Holes (PBHs). From their phenomenological implications, their possible relationship to extant problems in the SM (dark matter, neutrino masses, baryon asymmetry, inflation), their theoretical underpinnings and origin, to the multi-messenger signals that are motivating state-of-the-art experimental developments.

2 postdoc positions: AI for large-scale computing in the Einstein Telescope
07.07.2026 2 postdoc positions: AI for large-scale computing in the Einstein Telescope We are seeking highly two highly motivated postdocs to join the ETCETERA project (Einstein Telescope Computing, Experimental Testbed & End-to-end Research Architecture), a large cross-border collaboration funded through the Interreg Meuse-Rhine (NL-BE-DE) programme and co-funded by the European Union. The Einstein Telescope (ET) is Europe’s next-generation gravitational-wave observatory. Expected to detect thousands of signals per day and generate data at the petabyte scale. Transforming these massive data streams into scientific discoveries requires intelligent methods that can efficiently orchestrate complex workflows, allocate computational resources, accelerate scientific simulations, and support real-time decision-making in large-scale computing environments.Application deadline September 1st, 2026.…
