Die Simons Foundation stellt 8 Millionen US-Dollar für eine weltweite Kollaboration im Bereich Schwarze Löcher und starke Gravitation bereit.

Das @mpi_grav in Potsdam ist Teil des Netzwerks mit dem Ziel, die in Gravitationswellen-Daten verborgenen Geheimnisse zu entschlüsseln.

ℹ️ aei.mpg.de/1271026/simons-coll

Die nun erstmals geförderte „Simons Collaboration on Black Holes and Strong Gravity“ wird die Arbeit von 12 Institutionen unterstützen. Sie wird Expert*innen für Gravitation und Schwarze Löcher aus den Bereichen theoretische Physik, Mathematik, numerische Berechnung, KI-gestützte Datenanalyse und Gravitationswellen-Beobachtung zusammenbringen. Die Kollaboration wird einen robusten theoretischen Rahmen entwickeln, um die in Gravitationswellen-Daten verborgenen Informationen über starke Gravitation zu interpretieren.

The Simons Foundation provides 8 million US dollars to fund a worldwide collaboration on black holes and strong gravity.

The @mpi_grav in Potsdam is part of the network aiming to decipher the secrets encoded in gravitational-wave data.

ℹ️ aei.mpg.de/1269794/simons-coll

The newly funded “Simons Collaboration on Black Holes and Strong Gravity” will support the work of 12 institutions, bringing together experts in gravity and black holes from theoretical physics, mathematics, numerical computation, AI-assisted data analysis and gravitational-wave observation. The collaboration will develop a robust theoretical framework for interpreting the information about strong gravity encoded in gravitational-wave data, including the matter–antimatter asymmetry of the universe, the nature of dark matter and potential extensions to Einstein's theory of general relativity.
