Funded Activity Summary
Australian Partnership in Advanced LIGO. Advanced Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) (AdvLIGO) will be the first gravitational wave observatory capable of frequent observation of known sources of gravitational waves leading to the birth of gravitational wave astronomy. The development of instruments capable of doing this is driving technology in fields such as lasers , optics, photonics and data analysis. By playing a key role in this facility, Australia will reap the scientific and technical rewards of being part of the most exciting frontier of physics in the 21st Century whilst training scientists and technologists for tomorrow.Funded Activity Details
