SUMMER SCHOOL

The 2nd Pacific Summer School: Black Hole Physics, Cosmology and Beyond, will take place from March 10th to March 14th in Santiago, Chile. This school will be held at the «Carlos Blin» Auditorium in Vicente Kovacevic II building, Faculty of Engineering and Architecture, Universidad Central de Chile.

This second edition consolidates a series of schools to be held in the South Pacific region, which aims to convene local and foreign M.Sc. and Ph.D. students, postdoc researchers, and some of the most renowned researchers in gravitation. The primary focus is to discuss the remarkable recent developments in both theory and observations in cosmology, gravitational waves, holography, black holes, and other compact objects within the context of general relativity and modified theories of gravity. Participants, especially students, will have the opportunity to learn advanced topics in theoretical physics through mini-courses presented by leading experts in the field. This event will be a suitable opportunity to assess new areas of contact and facilitate ongoing collaborations while promoting new research partnerships.

Organizers: Cristián Erices, Adolfo Cisterna
