33. Deciphering the neutrino sky

Dorothea Samtleben

08/11/2024, 10:30

Neutrinos are among the most abundant particles in the universe, and yet their properties are probably the least known of all elementary particles. They are highly sought after as they provide invaluable information from the distant universe, while determining their properties will shed light on future extensions of the Standard Model.

The Netherlands are deeply involved in the KM3NeT...

21. The Low-Frequency Chords of Gravitational Waves: Insights from pulsar timing arrays

Dr Anuradha Samajdar (Utrecht University)

08/11/2024, 11:15

In this talk, I will introduce gravitational wave (GW) data analysis and highlight the differences between ground-based GW analysis and GW analysis using pulsar timing arrays. In June 2023, tentative evidence emerged for the presence of a low-frequency signal in pulsar timing data. The most likely source of the signal in the nanoHertz regime, probed by pulsar timing, is the superposition of GW...

34. How to build the Einstein Telescope

Andreas Freise

08/11/2024, 16:20

Gravitational wave observatories have started to make significant contributions to physics and astronomy. Now the gravitational wave community has the responsibility to provide adequate observational capability for gravitational waves for 2030 and beyond. The ‘Einstein Telescope’ (ET) is our vision to build a new gravitational wave observatory in Europe, possibly near Maastricht.
