This PHAROS COST Action CA16214 training school is held jointly with the 57th edition of the Karpacz Winter School of Theoretical Physics. The event is organized by the Institute of Theoretical Physics at the University of Wroclaw, Poland. The meeting takes place in the light of the very first observation of the gravitational wave signals GW170817, GW190425 and GW190814, as well as the pioneering NICER results.
The goal of this Winter School is to educate the next generation of young scientists in the field of nuclear astrophysics and related topics. The scientific tools and methods, which are the focus of this training school, are at the current frontier of this truly interdisciplinary field of research.
The school is composed of a series of lectures and traineeships. The latter involve computer practice. Therfore, it is required to bring laptops with the appropriate software, which will be announced later. The trainees will work together with the lectureres on scientific problems, familiarize with modern numerical methods and implementations as well as numerical solutions. They will collect, analyze and fit as well as familiarize with the handling of big data.
The activities of this school are particularly related to trainees associated with the WG1 and WG3 (equation of state and gravitational waves) of the PHAROS COST Action. We target up to 25 ECIs (early career investigators), i.e. Ph.D. students and young post-docs up to 8-years after Ph.D. – PHAROS will cover all costs for the approved participants. The selection of the candidates will be done in two steps:
NOTE: It is requested from the approved candidates to participate the entire period of the training school, otherwise COST support will be cancelled.
The top priority is to protect the health of our participants and the Artus Hotel staff and to avoid infections, especially with the viruses COVID-19 and SARS-CoV-2. For this purpose, a comprehensive and detailed hygiene concept was developed and approved by the responsible authority. Our specially trained, experienced team is at your side with competence and commitment to effectively implement the health and hygiene measures at the 57. Karpacz Winter School. The most important cornerstones are:
