6^th Edoardo Amaldi Conference on Gravitational Waves

Amaldi6 is the latest in the series of Edoardo Amaldi Conferences on Gravitational Waves. Since 1999, these conferences, held every two years, have been regarded as the most important international conferences for the gravitational wave detection community. Amaldi6 is especially significant because the global network of ground-based interferometric detectors has begun generating meaningful scientific results to augment those from the existing resonant antennae. This combination is leading us to the establishment of a completely new perspective on the universe, that of "gravitational wave astronomy".
Amaldi6 will consist of a series of sessions on gravitational wave sources, status of current detectors, details of current detectors, space detectors, data analysis, advanced detectors, and R&D for advanced detectors. Because of the abundant scientific data available recently, Amaldi6 will have somewhat more focus on data analysis than did previous Amaldi conferences.
Amaldi6 will be held in Okinawa, Japan from June 19 - 24, 2005. Okinawa is one of the 47 prefectures in Japan, located in a semi-tropical area. It is famous for its crystal blue sea with white-sand beaches and colorful fishes dancing through coral. It is hoped that this large international forum held in such an enchanting place will attract a variety of scientists in this field from all over the world.
