The upcoming launch of LISA has recently strengthened the interest in exploring Standard Model extensions where a gravitational wave-producing, strong first-order electroweak phase transition (SFOEWPT) occurs in the early universe. One of the preferred approaches to the study of thermally induced FOPTs is through the construction of a dimensionally reduced effective field theory (3dEFT). In...
The Hamiltonian formalism of perturbation theory in general relativity is a powerful tool for exploring physical aspects beyond the mathematical formulation of an astrophysical system. Its broad range of applications makes the analysis of spherically symmetric backgrounds particularly interesting. The Loop Quantum Gravity group at IEM-CSIC has focused on studying the final stages of...
The prospect of observing loud ringdowns from massive black hole mergers with LISA opens an unprecedented window into the strong-field regime of gravity. Using this opportunity hinges on our ability to extend the current paradigms of black hole perturbation theory and ringdown modelling to account for dynamical non-linearities. In this talk, I will present a new approach to black hole...
