100 Years of General Relativity: From Theory to Experiment and Back

All lectures will take place at the Israel Institute for Advanced Studies,
at the Edmond J. Safra, Givat Ram Campus

Director: David Gross, KITP/UCSB

Organizer: Eliezer Rabinovici, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem

In 1915, Albert Einstein presented his theory of gravity: General Relativity. This School is the first event worldwide to celerabte that achievement. General Relativity has many important theoretical and experimental aspects. While the School will focus mainly on the string theory aspects, it will pay homage to other aspects as well.

Speakers:
Nima Arkani-Hamed, IAS, Princeton
Jacob Bekenstein, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem
Thibault Damour, IHES
Gary Gibbons, DAMTP, Cambridge
Michael Green, DAMTP, Cambridge
Juan Maldacena, IAS, Princeton
Viacheslav Mukanov, LMU
Hermann Nicolai, MPI Golm
James Peebles, Princeton University
Tsvi Piran, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem
Joseph Polchinski, KITP/UCSB
Jorgen Renn, MPI Berlin
Carlo Rovelli, Centre de Physique Theorique de Luminy
