Project summary, main goals and expected results The scientific project is organized around two main science themes, for which the collaborations are very strong and active. We propose to structure this Sino-French collaboration around a solid exchange program, in particular for young scientists in view of the long-term sustainability of the collaboration. The transient sky [...]

The Local Group, the Sino-French collaboration: realizations and projects The Local Group is firstly made of two giant spiral galaxies, Andromeda (M31) and the Milky Way. Besides them, there are two small spiral galaxies, M33, and the Large Magellanic Cloud, both perhaps at their first approach to their giant host, M31 and the MW, respectively. [...]

National and international context The next years will be rich of new discoveries in the GRB and GW fields thanks to the multi-wavelength and multi-messanger data set that will be obtained by new or upgraded facilities. Of particular interest will be the new observing runs (O4 and O5) of the LIGO-Virgo-Kagra interferometers, and the launch [...]
