Gravitational Waves: A New Frontier Across Scales and Disciplines: Seminar.¶

The year 2025 marks the 10th anniversary of the first experimental detection of gravitational waves. In the last decade, thanks to the observation of gravitational waves, our understanding of the Universe has evolved dramatically, with discoveries not only anticipated but already being realized. In this presentation, I will offer a personal (and admittedly biased) overview of gravitational-wave science, emphasizing how this field of research brings together multiple disciplines—from astrophysics and cosmology to particle physics and artificial intelligence. I will discuss the current status and prospects of detectors such as LIGO–Virgo–KAGRA, the Einstein Telescope, and LISA, highlighting how their observations (will) enable more profound insights into black hole populations, neutron-star mergers, and the early history of the Universe. Finally, I will explore the increasingly central role that AI and machine learning play—and will increasingly continue to play—in handling massive data streams, refining signal detection, and extracting physical parameters.

MDC hands on¶

4 Snakemake hands on¶

We will only show how to run with Snakemake on a laptop. Requirements: Snakemake and Singularity/Apptainer, which we will show how to install them with conda.
Since access to the ESCAPE Data Lake requires authentication (an account in ESCAPE's Indigo AIM), I decided not to download the data from the ESCAPE Data Lake, but from the public webserver http://et-origin.cism.ucl.ac.be/.
We will be using a docker container for the environment and run the (relevant steps of the) pipeline with Singularity/Apptainer.

Speakers: Andres Tanasijczuk, PRADEEP JASAL (University of Barcelona)
