DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Ruth Durrer (Université de Genève)\n\nGravitationa
 l waves (GWs) have a very weak absorption cross section. This makes them d
 ifficult to observe on the one hand\, but it  is also for this reason the
 y carry pristine information from their generation mechanism. Their observ
 ation may allow  glimpses  back to the highest redshifts and energies in
  the Universe. \n \nAfter a brief introduction to the significance of the
  observation of a stochastic gravitational wave background\, I shall  con
 centrate on two possibilities: Generating gravitational waves from violent
  processes in the post-inflationary Universe and generating them during in
 flation. I shall show that in both cases different universal GW spectra ar
 e generated. I shall also discuss what we may learn from their observation
