Mission

The Supernova Multi-messenger Consortium mission is multifold:

  1. To bring together the world’s core collapse supernova experts for the advancement of supernova gravitational wave astrophysics.
  2. To educate the community of gravitational wave astronomers with regard to the state of the art in core collapse supernova modeling and the prediction of core collapse supernova gravitational wave signals.
  3. To be educated by the community of gravitational wave astronomers with regard to their detection methods.
  4. To speak with one voice in providing input to the gravitational wave astronomy community as we together prepare for a gravitational wave event.
  5. To build up an annotated database vetted by the board, containing computed core collapse supernova gravitational wave signals.
