LISA newsletters and brochures

Newsletters

Issue 2 December 2006

How can LISA help us learn more about massive black holes? And what are the possibilities for new physics - such as predictions from string theory - using LISA observations of the early universe? Now's your chance to find out - in the second LISA newsletter for 2006 (download here as PDF 1.5 MB) which has just been published. Also, check out the news about LISA technology development, from Laser Interferometry to the ground tests of the gravitational reference sector - and see what's been happening with the Mock LISA Data Challenges and at the Sixth International LISA Symposium

Issue 1 May 2006

In this first issue we report on the status of LISA Pathfinder and provide a summary of ongoing LISA formulation studies at EADS Astrium and an update on LISA micro-Newton thruster technology. Science topics include an introduction to extreme-mass ratio inspirals, a summary of a year of breakthroughs in numerical relativity and an update on LIST data-analysis activities.

Mission brochures

Both NASA and ESA have produced brochures that give background information on the LISA mission and the science it hopes to achieve.
