[Users] Announcement: Caltech Relativistic Astrophysics Summer School 2025

[Most, Elias R.]

Dear all,



We are pleased to announce the Caltech Relativistic Astrophysics Summer School 2025, which will take place in Pasadena, CA from June 23-27, 2025.

High-energy astrophysics has made remarkable progress in describing some of the most extreme phenomena in the universe. Recent discoveries such as compact binary mergers and multi-messenger gravitational wave events, fast radio bursts, ultra-high energy cosmic rays, and advances in our understanding of the transient high energy sky (radio, X-ray, gamma-ray) open up new possibilities for forefront research in these rapidly evolving fields.


This summer school aims to provide beginning and advanced graduate students in astrophysics, physics, and adjacent fields with the knowledge and tools to fully take advantage of these exciting developments.
A particular focus of the school will be the application of emerging computational tools to provide high-fidelity models of high-energy astrophysical phenomena in strong gravity environments, e.g., around black holes or neutron stars.

The one-week long summer school will include lectures on a broad range of topics:

  *   Black hole astrophysics
  *   Dynamo and turbulence
  *   Magnetohydrodynamics
  *   Multi-messenger gravitational wave events
  *   Neutrino astrophysics
  *   Neutron star magnetospheres
  *   Numerical Relativity
  *   Plasma kinetics


Applications are open now. To receive full consideration, applications should be submitted by April 1, 2025. Partial financial support is available on a request basis.


For the organizers,

Elias R. Most, Sasha Philippov
