Gravitational Wave Physics and Astronomy WorkshopGWPAW 2019
October 14-17, 2019
|
- GWPAW, Gravitational Wave Physics and Astronomy Workshop, is a series of annual conferences which was initiated in the 90', having been hosted by University of Maryland in College Park last year. The scientific talks and posters cover the physics and astronomy of gravitational waves, techniques for their detection, and interpretation of data and results.
This year in 2019 it will take place at The University of Tokyo, hosted by the Research Center for the Early Universe (RESCEU), The University of Tokyo.
Registration:
- Online registration can be done from here. The deadline of registration is September 5, 2019.
