Description

A meeting of the SuperNova Early Warning System project. This meeting will be virtual. One short day this year, Wednesday May 12.

This workshop is to get set for the summer's work on getting SNEWS into the modern era of Multi-Messenger Astronomy, "SNEWS 2.0", as first discussed at Laurentian University in 2019 and continued adjacent to Nu2020 in 2020.
