PhD Seminar: Joan Llobera Querol, Estudiant del Programa de Doctorat de Física — Aligning and Constructing Hybrid Waveforms for Precessing Binaries
Aula 4, The Complexe, ParcBit , SpainPrecessing binaries exhibit complex dynamics that significantly modulate the emitted gravitational waveform. Describing such systems is challenging due to the lack of a canonical choice [...]
Gravity Seminar: Rita Santos, Support Scientist UIB – Characteristic Critical Collapse with Null Infinity
Aula 4, The Complexe, ParcBit , SpainSolutions to the Einstein Equations that are close to the threshold of black hole formation exhibit features that resemble critical phenomena in statistical mechanics. We [...]
PhD Seminar: Jorge Valencia Gómez, Estudiant del Programa de Doctorat de Física — Mind the step: On the frequency-domain analysis of gravitational-wave memory waveforms
Aula 4, The Complexe, ParcBit , SpainGravitational wave memory is characterized by a signal component that persists after a transient signal has decayed. Treating such signals in the frequency domain is [...]
PhD Seminar: Jesús Yébana Carrilero, Estudiant del Programa de Doctorat de Física — Bridging the gap between extreme and comparable mass ratios in black-hole binaries
Aula 4, The Complexe, ParcBit , SpainState-of-the-art gravitational waveform models need input from many frameworks tackling the relativistic two-body problem. Among them are the gravitational self-force approach, which was designed to [...]
PhD Seminar: Llorenç Melis, Estudiant del Programa de Doctorat de Física — Surface waves and KHi in a prominence-corona interface: effect of the ambipolar diffusion
There are a wide variety of phenomena in solar prominences, such as waves, instabilities or mass flows. Observations have shown the ubiquitous presence of MHD [...]
New Frontiers 2025: past, current and future challenges in Numerical Relativity
Universitat de les Illes Balears Carretera Valldemossa km 7.5, Palma de Mallorca, Baleares, SpainIn the history of numerical (or computational) general relativity, the “Frontiers” meeting in 1988 at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign (USA), played a pivotal role [...]
10th Anniversary of the Discovery of Gravitational Waves
Auditori Son Espanyol Auditorium Parc BIT, Centre Empresaria, Palma, Illes Balears, SpainTo celebrate the 10th anniversary of the momentous first detection of gravitational waves, GW150914, a three-day event will be held in Mallorca, Spain. Monday, September [...]
