Gravitational Wave Astrophysics
The detection of gravitational waves ignited one of the most exciting revolutions in modern science by opening up a new window into our Universe. To date, more than a dozen mergers of black holes in binary systems have been observed providing unique insight into their physical properties, such as mass and spin, that are impossible to infer otherwise. A central theme in our research is to address the question "How do black hole binaries merge?"
