ERC Advanced Grant for Steffen Grohmann from KIT - EurekAlert


<p><strong>Refrigeration and cryogenics expert Professor Steffen Grohmann from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) receives an Advanced Grant of the European Research Council (ERC). The ERC funds Grohmann&rsquo;s project GRAVITHELIUM on the development of a key technology for the Einstein Telescope (ET) &ndash; the proposed next-generation European gravitational-wave detector. GRAVITHELIUM aims to push the sensitivity of cryogenic laser interferometers to fundamental limits using superfluid helium. This technology is expected to solve a central challenge in observing gravitational waves of the entire universe with ET. &nbsp;</strong></p>
