- Angeles DIAZ (Universidad Autonoma de Madrid)
Description
This whole session will be dedicated to some major and different types of experiments in Astronomy and Astrophysics searching i.e. spatial telescope, very large dimensions terrestrial telescope and atom interferometry based experiments. They will contribute to the years to come, to search for DARK ENERGY and DARK MATTER, to measure GRAVITY constants and contribute to the study of gravitational waves (AEDGE) and explore the space.
