Our spring czechLISA meeting will take place on Monday 11.3.2024 at the:

Adéla Kochanovská large lecture hall (SOLID21)                                                       Institute of Physics of the Czech Academy of Sciences    Pod vodárenskou věží 2531/3, Praha 8, Czech Republic

Apart from scientists and students from Czech Republic interested in the LISA mission, we would like to invite LISA/ESA members visiting Prague for the IDS Project Manager Meeting 12.-13.3.2024, so we might have a fruitful interaction during the czechLISA meeting.

Program:

  • Martin Kološ (Silesian University in Opava): Nonlinear analysis  of gravitational wave data
  •   Petra Suková (Astronomical Institute, CAS): Searching for Small Mass Ratio Inspirals in X-rays
  •  Vojtěch Witzany (Charles University in Prague): Prague waveforms
  •   Michael Prouza (Director of Institute of Physics, CAS): Gravitational Physics @ FZU
• 17:00 – 18:00 Break
• 18:00 – 19:00 Guido Müller (Director at Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics) presented by Kanioar Karan: LISA – Overview of the scientific prospects and the instrument
