International collaboration in gravitational wave data analysis, simulations and third generation detectors. The project brings together seven outstanding international researchers into close collaboration with an Australian team to develop new techniques for finding gravitational wave signals in the vast archive of data they have helped to collect, as well as developing and testing theory for improved detectors that operate with sensitivity beyond the limits set by classical physics. The projec ....International collaboration in gravitational wave data analysis, simulations and third generation detectors. The project brings together seven outstanding international researchers into close collaboration with an Australian team to develop new techniques for finding gravitational wave signals in the vast archive of data they have helped to collect, as well as developing and testing theory for improved detectors that operate with sensitivity beyond the limits set by classical physics. The project will utilize a state of the art supercomputer and the superb national facility for high power laser interferometry at Gingin, Western Australia. Read moreRead less
Real-Time Searches for Gravitational Waves and Identification of Their Radio and Optical Counterparts. The proposed project will directly address the national research priority in development of frontier technologies, directly involve Australians in frontier work in gravitational wave astronomy that will result in break-through sciences and improve the chance of the international Square-Kilometer-Array project being sited at Australia. In addition, it will foster a close collaboration of top int ....Real-Time Searches for Gravitational Waves and Identification of Their Radio and Optical Counterparts. The proposed project will directly address the national research priority in development of frontier technologies, directly involve Australians in frontier work in gravitational wave astronomy that will result in break-through sciences and improve the chance of the international Square-Kilometer-Array project being sited at Australia. In addition, it will foster a close collaboration of top international researchers with an Australian team. The research at The University of Western Australia will attract students from around the world and serve to educate and inspire young people in Australia.Read moreRead less
