DESCRIPTION:Prof Federico Ferrini from the University of Pisa gives a talk
  on gravitational waves - see the abstract below for more details.\n\nAdmi
 ssion is free to CUPS members\, or £2 otherwise. As always\, wine and che
 ese will be served after the talk.\n\n(Abstract:) Inspired by Einstein's d
 eduction of the emission of Gravitational Waves\, physicists have develope
 d brilliant ideas to reveal these elusive signals. \n\nAfter resonant bars
 \, now very large ground-based interferometric detectors are at the forefr
 ont of this centennial hunt. The joint LIGO & Virgo Collaborations are con
 fident to conclude "La Queste Del Saint Graal" of General Relativity in a 
 few years.
