The Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics (CITA) is a unique national and international centre of research and advanced training. Founded in 1984 with NSERC endorsement and support, it has become a world leader in the field of astrophysics and its activities ensure that Canada will remain an influential player in this high-profile area. Researchers at CITA address questions about the origin and evolution of the solar system, planets, stars, galaxies, clusters, the large-scale structure of the Universe, and life -- fundamental questions that fascinate everyone. As a theory centre that interacts closely with leaders in observational and instrumentation research, CITA is optimally placed to create the intellectual ferment that arises from technical innovation in this unprecedented era of discovery of the universe. Its researchers are in the vanguard of the revolution, in terms of both leadership of major Canadian and international projects and impact of the published results of the research.

加拿大理论天体物理研究所（CITA）是一个独特的国家和国际研究和高级培训中心。在NSERC的支持和支持下，它成立于1984年，已成为天体物理学领域的世界领导者，其活动确保加拿大将继续在这一备受瞩目的领域发挥重要作用。CITA的研究人员解决了关于太阳系、行星、恒星、星系、星团、宇宙的大规模结构和生命的起源和演化的问题——这些基本问题让每个人都着迷。作为一个与观测和仪器研究领域的领导者密切合作的理论中心，CITA处于最佳位置，可以在这个前所未有的宇宙发现时代创造由技术创新产生的知识发酵。它的研究人员是革命的先锋，无论是在主要的加拿大和国际项目的领导和发表的研究结果的影响。
