Description:

The conference will cover a range of areas connected to gravity, including fundamental physics, cosmology, relativistic astro, data and modelling, mathematics and experiment. The first two days of the meeting will be run in conjunction with UK Cosmology, which will partially cover expenses for UK participants.

The conference will celebrate the recent opening of the Nottingham Centre of Gravity (NCoG), which brings together Nottingham’s expertise in all aspects of gravitation in the Schools of Mathematical Sciences and Physics and Astronomy. The conference will also run alongside the Cosmic Titans exhibition, an inspiring blend of art and science, featuring commissions from nine artists who have collaborated with members of the NCoG and other UK-based researchers in gravity and quantum physics. Through immersive sculptural installations, film, and photography, these artists capture the excitement, wonder, and poetry of cutting-edge scientific discovery, offering a unique perspective on how these advancements shape our future.
