Undergraduate Research at LIGO

Undergraduate students are encouraged to participate in the development of gravitational-wave astronomy through the LIGO Project. This intensive summer program takes place each year at Caltech, funded in part through the Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Program of the National Science Foundation. Undergraduate students from all institutions (both U.S. and foreign) are invited to apply to the LIGO Summer Undergraduate Research Program. Research awards include a summer stipend and some funding for travel to Caltech as needed.

The LIGO Project is an NSF-supported endeavor to design, build, and operate an astrophysical observatory for the detection and study of gravitational radiation. The observatory includes two sites (Hanford, Washington and Livingston Parish, Louisiana) with laser interferometric detector systems. (More information on LIGO can be found on the LIGO home page, and from "LIGO: The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory," A. Abramovici, et al., Science, 256, 325, 1992.)   The aim of the LIGO Summer Undergraduate Research Program is to organize the participation of undergraduate students in research associated with the LIGO Project.

LIGO research projects may cover many areas of science and engineering related to the detection of gravitational radiation, including:
  • Laboratory projects in mechanical, laser, optical, and electronic systems
  • Modeling and analysis of optomechanical systems
  • Software development projects
  • Modeling of astrophysical sources of gravitational radiation
The LIGO Summer Program runs from approximately June 18 through August 24, 2012 (exact dates are not yet known, but will be posted here shortly). These dates are somewhat flexible, depending on a student's particular circumstances. It is also possible to work longer than the standard 10 weeks of the program (for more pay), if this is arranged in advance.

Be quick last date to apply is 10 Feb 2012
