From Quarks to Neutron Stars: Insights from kHz gravitational waves on April 23, 2025

This conference focused on the role of high-frequency gravitational waves in advancing multi-messenger astrophysics. Key topics included binary neutron star mergers, such as GW170817, and future prospects for observing core-collapse supernovae using electromagnetic signals, neutrinos, and gravitational waves.

Discussions highlighted the importance of kilohertz-band gravitational waves in probing the dense interiors of neutron stars, where exotic matter may exist. The seminar also introduced new detector concepts like NEMO in Australia and planned KAGRA upgrades aimed at enhancing high-frequency sensitivity.

The event featured expert talks and posters, promoting collaboration and new research directions in nuclear and neutron star physics.
