The 3rd LISA Sprint

About the Workshop

The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) is a joint effort of ESA and NASA to develop and operate the first space-based observatory of gravitational waves (GWs) in the millihertz frequency band. To prepare for LISA observations and its unique data products, we are organizing the 3rd LISA Sprint in Huntsville, AL, from Monday April 28 to Wednesday April 30, 2025.

The meeting's goals are two-fold:

• Connect LISA data scientists with astronomers and astrophysicists who will incorporate LISA data products into their research.
• Advance the research community’s readiness to capitalize on LISA observations.

Workshop Theme

The theme for this third meeting is Time Domain and Multimessenger Astronomy with LISA. During the workshop, small interdisciplinary teams of researchers will come together to make concrete progress on concise projects and goals related to this scientific area.

Participants are encouraged to propose ideas and contribute material that aligns with the workshop’s format. This is a hands-on workshop with no traditional talks—only brief project pitches and a final "show and tell" to share progress with the group.
