FOUNDING PARTNER INSTITUTES
Our founding partner institutes are: the Canadian Institute for Theoretical Physics (CITA); the Dunlap Institute at the University of Toronto; the Centre for Astrophysics at the University of Waterloo; and York University.
These institutes are involved in many of the most important astronomical instruments of our time, including the Square Kilometre Array, the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope, the Event Horizon Telescope, and CHIME.
TIES TO EXPERIMENT
Perimeter scientists are connected to some of the most important experiments of our time, including:
- The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO)
- The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME)
- The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory Institute (SNOLAB)
- The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT)
The Centre will deepen its involvement in these experiments, forging a unique combination of theoretical and experimental strengths.
