Advancing gravitational wave predictions from cosmological first-order phase transitions, August 25–29 2025 at CERN

As the detection of a stochastic gravitational wave background from the early universe becomes increasingly promising, signals from hypothetical first-order phase transitions are attracting growing interest. Predicting these signals often requires the solution of plasma dynamics at macroscopic scales, which, in turn, depends on the phenomena that characterize the phase transition at microscopic scales. Therefore, various assumptions on distinctive scales and their separation are usually employed to enable concrete evaluations.

Multi-Messenger Astrophysics in the Dynamic Universe, January 26 - February 27, 2026 at YITP Kyoto University

Astrophysics has finally entered a new era, transitioning from the multi-wavelength observation approach of the 20th century to the era of multi-messenger observations. The discovery of the binary neutron star merger event GW170817 in 2017 marked the beginning of this shift, as it was first detected through a gravitational wave and gamma-ray burst, followed by electromagnetic counterparts observed across various wavelengths, including X-ray, optical, infrared, and radio. In addition to gravitational waves, significant advancements have also been made in other multi-messenger signals, such as high-energy neutrinos and high-energy gamma rays. Traditional X-ray, optical, infrared, and radio observations are not only achieving higher sensitivities but are also making great strides in discovery science through time-domain astronomy, focusing on transient events.
