INGV reaffirms its commitment to promoting scientific culture by taking an active part in the activities organised in Nuoro as part of the Sharper project for European Researchers’ Night.
The event offers a valuable opportunity to bring researchers and the public together, highlighting Sardinia’s key role in addressing major international scientific challenges.
On the mornings of Thursday 24 and Friday 25 September, INGV researchers and Einstein Telescope science communicators will meet students from the city’s secondary schools. Through hands-on workshops and discussions, students will discover how scientists study planet Earth, exploring geophysical investigation methods and the importance of subsurface monitoring.
On Friday 25 September at 6:30 pm, we will take part in an event at the Centro Polifunzionale di Nuoro, alongside other researchers involved in developing the Einstein Telescope (ET) project, Europe’s future research infrastructure for detecting gravitational waves. The event is entitled
“Listening to the Cosmos: Researchers Discuss the Present and Future of the Einstein Telescope”, and Caterina Zei will give a talk entitled “Understanding the Subsurface Through Geophysical Investigations”.
The presentation will explain how geophysical methods enable scientists to explore and characterise subsurface structures at depth, highlighting the essential contribution of geophysics to assessing and selecting the Sardinian site as a potential location for this extraordinary scientific instrument of global significance.
INGV warmly invites students, teachers, science enthusiasts and members of the public to take part in the scheduled activities:
- Einstein Telescope in the Classroom!
- Listening to the Cosmos: Researchers Discuss the Present and Future of the Einstein Telescope
