The European Gravitational Observatory (EGO) and the Institute for Cosmic Ray Research (ICRR) organize a meeting, under the patronage of the Italian Embassy in Tokyo, with the aim to explore the collaboration between Italy and Japan on the Gravitational Wave research with the future interferometric detectors in Italy (advanced Virgo) and Japan(LCGT). The 3rd generation perspectives, thanks to the Einstein Telescope (ET) project will be investigated too and the ELiTES Japanese-European collaborative FP7 project, between ET and LCGT, will be prepared.
Place:
