Institute for Gravitation and the Cosmos, The Pennsylvania State University

The Institute for Gravitation and the Cosmos is a multidisciplinary institute of Penn State researchers dedicated to the study of the most fundamental structure and constituents of the Universe. It seeks to foster the highest quality education and research in cosmology, general relativity, gravitational wave astronomy, particle astrophysics, quantum gravity and string theory, focusing on the highest energy phenomena and fundamental issues in the Science of the Cosmos.

The Institute — headed by Abhay Ashtekar -- integrates the theoretical and observational research carried out in its three centers: the Center for Fundamental Theory, headed by Murat Gunaydin, Professor of Physics; the Center for Theoretical and Observational Cosmology, headed by Don Schneider, Distinguished Professor of Astronomy and Astrophysics; and the Center for Particle and Gravitational Astrophysics by Peter Mészáros, the Eberly Professor of Astronomy and Astrophysics and the Chief Theorist for the Swift GRBE mission.

I suppose that the articles by Sergey V. Simonenko (concerning to the generalized first law of thermodynamics for nonstationary cosmic gravitation) will be interesting for Institute for Gravitation and the Cosmos! My best regaqrds, Dr. Sergey V. Simonenko
