The CoCoNuT code is a general relativistic hydrodynamics code with dynamical spacetime evolution. The aim of this numerical code is the study of several astrophysical scenarios in which general relativity can play an important role, namely the collapse of rapidly rotating stellar cores and the evolution of isolated neutron stars.

The emphasis this year shall be put on gravitational waves as probes of new physics under extreme conditions. Recent progress and future developments of this field and of the CoCoNuT code shall be discussed, but not exclusively. Possible topics of the meeting are:

• Gravitational wave theory and detection
• Simulation and modeling of GW sources: black holes, neutron stars, supernovae
• Multimessenger astronomy using GW
• Science potential of present and future planed detectors

The purpose of the CoCoNuT meeting is twofold: on the one hand it is intended as a regular (yearly so far) meeting of the CoCoNuT users, but it also serves as an opportunity to interchange ideas with users of similar numerical codes. Therefore the attendance to the meeting of anyone outside the CoCoNuT community is welcomed. This meeting in particular would be of interest to a wide community including cosmologists, high energy physicists, theoretical relativists, numerical relativists and nuclear astrophysicists.
