Research

Research in the Relativity and Gravitation Group at UIB covers a wide range of topics in numerical relativity, gravitational wave astronomy, mathematical relativity and computational methods. As a member of the LIGO Scientific Collaboration (LSC), and the GEO, NINJA-2 and NRAR collaborations, a focus point is provided by gravitational wave science, where we are involved in analysing observational data, and in the theoretical modeling of black holes and other phenomena in Einstein’s general relativity.

Both in gravitational wave data analysis and in simulating black holes, our work often relies on supercomputing and developing scientific software.
