2025 달팽이 강의 (Snail Lecture) - Gravitational-Wave Cosmology
Lecturer: Prof. Daniel Figueroa (IFIC, Valencia)
Date: Sept 29 ~ Oct 2, 4~6pm
Location: Chung-Ang University (중앙대학교 103관 304 혹은 404호)
Abstract: After a proper definition of gravitational waves (GWs) in General Relativity, we will study how gravitational wave (GW) backgrounds are generated in the early Universe, including scenarios from inflation, preheating, phase transitions and cosmic defects. For consistency, we will also discuss the status of observational constraints on these primeval backgrounds.
Lectures will be held offline.
Registration is required; no registration fee.
Lectures target particle physics graduate students, but any interested students and researcher are welcome.
