Paper: Testing General Relativity Using Golden Black-Hole Binaries
This post describes a paper outlining the methodology for testing general relativity with binary black holes, which was later applied to the LIGO and Virgo d...
Introduction
I am a theoretical (astro)physicist interested in black holes, neutron stars, gravitational waves, and general relativity. You can learn more about my research and other academic activities by following the links on this page.Recent Posts
