CMSA General Relativity Seminar: Tidal Squeezing of Black Holes

CMSA GENERAL RELATIVITY SEMINAR, CMSA EVENTS

October 10, 2023      11:00 am
Speaker: Maria Rodriguez - Utah

Recent developments indicate that Kerr black holes do not deform when perturbed by a static external gravitational field. Relying on hidden symmetries, compelling progress has been achieved to explain that...

CMSA General Relativity Seminar: Testing GR with GWs

CMSA GENERAL RELATIVITY SEMINAR, CMSA EVENTS

May 4, 2023      9:30 am
Speaker: Vitor Cardoso - IST, Lisbon and The Niels Bohr Institute, Copenhagen

One of the most remarkable possibilities of General Relativity concerns gravitational collapse to black holes, leaving behind a geometry with light rings, ergoregions and horizons. These peculiarities are responsible for...
