DPG Spring Meeting of the Matter and Cosmos Section (SMuK) 2023 in Dresden, Germany

I was finally able to attend the annual DPG meeting in person after last year’s online modality due to the pandemic. This year it was in the beautiful city of Dresden. The talk I presented during this meeting was on my recent publication, Numerical-relativity-informed effective-one-body model for black-hole–neutron-star mergers with higher modes... Read more

Numerical Relativity informed EOB model for BHNS mergers

In 2212.03909 we present the first effective-one-body (EOB) model for generic-spins quasi-circular black-hole–neutron-star (BHNS) inspiral-merger-ringdown gravitational waveforms (GWs). Our model is based on a new numerical-relativity (NR) informed expression of the BH remnant and its ringdown. It reproduces the NR $(\ell,m)=(2,2)$ waveform with... Read more

CoRe database second release

In 2210.16366 we present the second data release of gravitational waveforms from binary neutron star merger simulations performed by the Computational Relativity (CoRe) collaboration. The current database consists of 254 different binary neutron star configurations and a total of 590 individual numerical-relativity simulations using various gri... Read more

Numerical Relativity Community Summer School 2022 in Providence, USA

This week I had the opportunity to participate in the NRCSS 2022 at the ICERM in Providence, Rhode Island. The week was packed with lectures in NR, Relativistic Hydrodynamics, High Performance Computing, and Waveforms, as well as tutorials for using the different available NR codes. The summer school closed with a hackaton, which let us start a ... Read more

Frontiers in Numerical Relativity 2022 in Jena, Germany

Last week we had the opportunity to host the FNR2022. We had a rich program from mathematical NR and computational methods, to beyond GR topics. Thank you all for joining and making it possible! Indico Website of the FNR2022 Read more
