This is the second edition of the General Relativity from AMPlitudes Alliance (GRAMPA) workshop, whose primary goal is to support early-career researchers working in the field of scattering amplitudes applied to gravitational theories.
The main theme of the workshop is to use of innovative techniques from the field of scattering amplitudes and beyond to study aspects of gravity relevant to upcoming gravitational wave experiments. There will be talks from GRAMPA members on aspects of their work in this field, as well as two short pedagogical lecture series by faculty researchers. The workshop will provide fertile ground for knowledge exchange between communities, foster new collaborations among early career researchers, and map out the shared future research directions of the communities.
The structure of the workshop will follow closely our previous meeting: 2 series of lectures in the mornings and seminars in the afternoons.
Confirmed speakers: Asaad Elkhidir, Kymani Armstrong-Williams, Giacomo Brunello, Sonja Klish, Panagiotis Marinellis, Lara Bohnenblust, Tamanna Jain, Nabha Shah.
Confirmed lecturers: Laura Bernard, Carlo Heissenberg.
WiFi: Members affiliated to eduroam accounts may access wi-fi using your usual around IHP institution credentials.
About the IHP: The institute is located in Paris' city center (in the 5th arrondissement) and is easy to reach with public transport. Participants may find it useful to get a "Navigo Liberté +" card to move around the city with metro/bus/RER. You may also find useful to download the "Bonjour RATP" app to find live times and routes. Furthermore, the IHP is very close to the Luxembourg gardens and the latin quarter, thus allowing for a great variety of food options and afterwork activities.
Getting to paris:
By train: Paris public transport is very easy to navigate, you may find it helpful to download the "Bonjour RATP" app and/or get a Navigo liberté+ card.
By air: If you're arriving from CDG you will probably get on the RER B train to enter the city of Paris, it may be useful to get a ticket beforehand to avoid the sometimes massive queues at the airport train station. If you land in ORY you can get to the city center either via the Orly bus, by taking the Metro 14 line or finally via the "Orlyval" to Anthony + RER B to Paris.
Sponsors: GRAMPA 2025 is kindly supported by Institut Henri Poincaré and by the ERC ERC–AdG–885414.
Code of conduct: ALL participants are expected to treat one another with courtesy, respect, kindness and professionalism. Inappropriate language or behaviour, including bullying, discrimination or any form of harassment will not be tolerated. All participants are expected to act with sensitivity toward the many distressing and ongoing troubles around the world.
