PHAROS Training School will take place in person

After a long time of uncertainty, we are extremely pleased to announce that the 57. Karpacz Winter School of Theoretical Physics and PHAROS COST Action, entitled "Equation of state of dense matter and multimessenger astronomy", will take place in person in the Artus Hotel, June 13-19, 2021. 

The goal of this school is to educate the next generation of young scientists in the field of nuclear astrophysics and related topics. The scientific tools and methods, which are the focus of this training school, are at the current frontier of this truly interdisciplinary field of research. The school is composed of a series of lectures and traineeships.

 

Lecturers and topics:

Collin Capano (Physics of gravitational wave emission and detection)

Cole Miller (Neutron star observations and NICER results)

Micaela Oertel (Introduction to the CompOSE database)

Luciano Rezzolla (The maths, physics and astrophysics of binary neutron stars mergers)

Gerd Röpke (Equation of state for nuclear matter with correlations and clustering)

Armen Sedrakian (Equation of state for nuclear matter with correlations and clustering)

 

Further details, including the registration, can be found at the school's homepage: https://events.ift.uni.wroc.pl/event/68/

Note that the activities of this school are particularly related to trainees associated with the WG1 and WG3 (equation of state and gravitational waves) of the PHAROS COST Action. We target up to about 15–20 early career investigators. Priority is given to the early registrations.

 

HEALTH PROTECTION: The top priority is to protect the health of our participants and the Artus Hotel staff and to avoid infections, especially with the viruses COVID-19 and SARS-CoV-2. For this purpose, a comprehensive and detailed hygiene concept was developed and approved by the responsible authority. Our specially trained, experienced team is at your side with competence and commitment to effectively implement the health and hygiene measures at the 57. Karpacz Winter School. The most important cornerstones are:

  • Keeping the distance: minimum distance of 1.50 m from person to person
  • Compliance with the hygiene rules
  • Contact person traceability

We are looking forward seeing you in Karpazc in June 2021 and remain at your disposal.
