Description

LIGO and Virgo have begun a new era in astronomy. Gravitational and Classical Astronomy will together observe highly energetic and transient phenomena in the Universe. The goal of this workshop is two-fold: (a) to explore how upcoming observations of such processes can help us understand the physics of at the extreme - strong gravitational fields, ultra-high densities, temperatures and magnetic fields and (b) to discuss the ultimate science goals for this emerging, synergistic field and what future detectors and telescopes would be needed to make a step change in the scientific questions we can answer with such observations.
