    Astronomers have developed a range of international observing facilities to observe violent, transient phenomena from across the Universe. This work increasingly depends on complex data analysis and data mining techniques.  Our interdisciplinary meeting brings together experimentalists and theorists from photonic, astro-particle, and gravitational wave detection experiments to improve our communication and analysis methods in order to maximise our scientific output.

    This meeting follows a broader Discussion meeting on New windows on transients across the Universe taking place at the Royal Society in London from 23 - 24 April 2012.
