This page describes AEI contributions to SFB-Transregio7 "Gravitational Wave Astronomy".
The Sonderforschungsbereich/Transregio 7, "Gravitational Wave Astronomy", is a German research network, funded by DFG. The network brings together experimental and theoretical physicists, astrophysicists and mathematicians from the Universities of Jena, Tübingen and Hanover as well as the Max- Planck Institutes for Gravitational Physics in Golm and and for Astrophysics in Garching to develop a national scientific community for gravitational wave physics. Projects deal with modelling cosmic sources of gravitational radiation, improving detector designs and analyzing gravitational wave signals.
