IRAP PhD the International Relativistic Astrophysics Ph.D. y v INVITATION FOR APPLICANTS 2010 o l o Following the successful scientific space missions by the European Space Agency t S . (ESA) and the European Southern Observatory (ESO) in Chile, as well as the high- S / C energy particle activities at CERN in Genève, we have created a Ph.D. program S S / dedicated to the formation of scientists in the field of relativistic astrophysics. The h c e t students of such a program will lead the theoretical developments of one of the most l a C active fields of research, based on the above observational and experimental facilities. - L P J This program provides expertise in the most advanced topics of mathematical and / A theoretical physics, and in relativistic field theories, in the context of astronomy, S A N astrophysics and cosmology. It provides the ability to model the observational data : R I received from the above facilities. This activity is necessarily international, no single ; . l a university can cover the broad expertises. t e The proposed program of the IRAP Ph.D. enjoys the collaboration of some of the g n most famous European Universities with one of the youngest and most dynamical a W . French universities, the University of Nice-Sophia Antipolis. Also it benefits from the D / I c presence of the Observatoire de la Côte d’Azur and the presence of the ICRANet S T S Center at Villa Ratti in Nice, where the coordination of the IRAP Ph.D. will take / A S place.

    CERN Courier June 2012 Faces & Places I NDUSTRY CERN supports new centre for business incubation in the UK To bridge the gap between basic science and industry, CERN and the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) have launched a new business-incubation centre in the UK. The centre will support businesses and entrepreneurs to take innovative technologies related to high-energy physics from technical concept to market reality. The centre, at STFC’s Daresbury Science and Innovation Campus, follows the success of a business-incubation centre at the STFC’s Harwell campus, which has run for 10 years with the support of the European Space Agency (ESA). The ESA Business Incubation Centre (ESA BIC) supports entrepreneurs and hi-tech start-up companies to translate space technologies, applications and services into viable nonspace-related business ideas. The CERN-STFC BIC will nurture innovative ideas based on technologies developed at CERN, with a direct contribution from CERN in terms of expertise. The centre is managed by STFC Innovations Limited, the technology-transfer office of STFC, which will provide John Womersley, CEO of STFC, left, and Steve Myers, CERN’s director of accelerators and successful applicants with entrepreneurial technology, at the launch of the CERN-STFC Business Incubation Centre on the Daresbury support, including a dedicated business Science and Innovation Campus.

  • On the Dynamics of the General Bianchi IX Spacetime Near the Singularity
    On the dynamics of the general Bianchi IX spacetime near the singularity Claus Kiefer,1, ∗ Nick Kwidzinski,1, y and W lodzimierz Piechocki2, z 1Institute for Theoretical Physics, University of Cologne, Z¨ulpicherStrasse 77, 50937 K¨oln,Germany 2Department of Fundamental Research, National Centre for Nuclear Research, Ho_za 69, 00-681 Warszawa, Poland (Dated: September 6, 2018) Abstract We show that the complex dynamics of the general Bianchi IX universe in the vicinity of the spacelike singularity can be approximated by a simplified system of equations. Our analysis is mainly based on numerical simulations. The properties of the solution space can be studied by using this simplified dynamics. Our results will be useful for the quantization of the general Bianchi IX model. PACS numbers: 04.20.-q, 05.45.-a arXiv:1807.06261v2 [gr-qc] 5 Sep 2018 ∗ [email protected] y [email protected] z [email protected] Typeset by REVTEX 1 I. INTRODUCTION The problem of spacetime singularities is a central one in classical and quantum theories of gravity. Given some general conditions, it was proven that general rel- ativity leads to singularities, among which special significance is attributed to big bang and black hole singularities [1]. The occurrence of a singularity in a physical theory usually signals the breakdown of that theory. In the case of general relativity, the expectation is that its singularities will disappear after quantization. Although a theory of quantum gravity is not yet available in finite form, various approaches exist within which the question of singularity avoidance can be addressed [2].

(Below:) The planned seat at Cassino da Urca (Brazil). II This brochure reviews some background facts concerning the founding of ICRANet and its current structures and then turns to the 2015 celebrations of the Year of Light and the ICRANet initiated International Relativistic Astrophysics Ph.D. program (the IRAP-PhD). It then addresses the birth of relativistic astrophysics following the first fifty years of the existence of general relativity plagued mainly by the absence of observational or experimental activity. Four events marked the onset of relativistic astrophysics: the discovery by Schmidt of the first quasar in 1962, of Scorpius X1 by Riccardo Giacconi in 1963, of the cosmic background radiation by Penzias and Wilson in 1964, and of pulsars by Jocelyn-Bell and Antony Hewish in 1967. These events led to a systematic development of the understanding of the four pillars of relativistic astrophysics: supernovae where observations of the CRAB Nebula are still relevant today, white dwarfs and neutron stars, black holes and their first identification in Nature in Cygnus X1 found by Riccardo Giacconi with the UHURU satellite based on the conceptual background developed by our group in Princeton, and finally the discovery of gamma ray bursts as the largest energy source delivered in the shortest time of any astrophysical phenomenon.
