Description

Description:

In Flanders, investments related to the Einstein Telescope (ET) have increased recently. The largest funding source is the FWO IRI-Project “Empowering Tomorrow's Technological Horizons for the Einstein Telescope”. Other activities are financed by the ET-EMR Project Office, Interreg, etc. Research in this quickly developing new field takes place at numerous Flemish universities and institutes. A large community of scientists is actively working on a multitude of groundbreaking scientific and technological challenges related to the Einstein Telescope.

In order to bring this active community together, we will be organizing a number of workshops in June 2026, each focusing on a specific domain. In this way we want to foster dialogue and informal scientific discussions across scientists active in similar or related fields, within the realm of ET-related work.

This domain 3 workshop pertains to Sensors, Suspensions, Controls, Beampipes and Vacuum. Researchers will present their recent/ongoing work and new insights. Next to that, opportunities will be created for informal discussions and networking. A draft agenda, as well as instructions for presenters can be found on the indico.

Local organizing committee: Hans Van Haevermaet, Nick van Remortel, Sarah Van Mierlo.
