The workshop on Gravitational Waves, Cosmology and Fundamental Physics will be hosted in Hangzhou Institute for Advanced Study (HIAS), University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (UCAS), on October 30-November 3, 2025. (Scientific sessions will be held on October 31- November 2.)
This workshop aims to bring together the ideas inspired by the recent progress in gravitational wave cosmology as well as other cosmological observations to explore the fundamental physics. The on-going gravitational wave observations at LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA and Pulsar Timing Arrays as well as the future observations at LISA, Taiji, TianQin, DECIGO, BBO, and so on have inspired many directions in the gravitational wave cosmology. Also recent "anomalies" reported in the Cosmic Microwave Background as well as the Baryon Acoustic Oscillation may give us hints for cosmology beyond ΛCDM. With these progress in mind, we will discuss the phenomena in the early Universe that generate stochastic gravitational wave background, which includes possible models with CP and Lorentz violation, as well as cosmology beyond ΛCDM.
Registration fee: 1500 CNY for staffs, 1000 CNY for students.
