One of the most successful theory describing cosmic objects,
their interactions and their time evolution, is the Einstein’s
theory of Gravity. One of the main prediction of the Gravity
theory is the existence of Gravitational Waves (GW), the ripples
of space-time. The discovery of a binary pulsar whose orbital
period changes in accordance with the predicted GW emission,
verified the predictions of the Einstein’s theory and opened up an
intensive activity of understanding all aspects of the GWs and the
implications of this discovery to alternative theories of
Gravities and to other branches of Physics, like Cosmology,
Astrophysics and Astronomy.
The aim of the 10th Aegean Summer School is to discuss the
recent developments in Theory and Observations in Gravity and
Cosmology. In particular: Τhe Gravity theory and its
modifications, like scalar-tensor theories and their constraints
from the propagation of the GWs will be discussed. Also the
physics of black holes, their formation, their stability and their
connection to astrophysical objects. Models of dark matter-dark
energy will be presented and their possible detection. Also,
recent astrophysical and cosmological observationαl results like
BAO and the 21-cm effect will also be discussed. There will be
extensive discussions on the future of GW and multi-messenger
physics on ground and in space presenting the LIGO, VIRGO, LISA,
TIANQIN experiments and discussions on Atomic Clocks and Machine
Learning.
The Aegean School is mainly addressed to postgraduate students
and young researchers aiming at introducing them to these very
challenging topics that recently have attracted much interest.
Those graduate and postgraduate students interested in attending
the school are requested to send a short CV and to the
School's Secretaries.
The 10th Aegean Summer School will take place in Ermoupolis in
the island of Syros.
The housing will be in the town of Ermoupolis in hotels which soon
will appear in the Travel and Accommodation link.
Τhe Municipality
of Syros kindly offered to the Organizing Committee of the 10th Aegean
Summer School the Lecture Hall "Ιωάννη Ρίτσου" in the
Cultural
Center of Ermoupolis where the lectures will be given.
The 10th Aegean Summer School is organized and
sponsored by the National Technical
University of Athens, Greece, the
University of Groningen, Denmark,
the University
Paris-Sud, Orsay, France, the
University
of Tuebingen, Germany, the
University of Yangzhou, China, the
University of Wuhan, China
and the European Gravitational
Observatory, EGO.
