The Cambridge Gravitational-Wave Network
CamGW researchers work on a wide range of topics in gravitational wave science, from theoretical developments to data analysis and astrophysical interpretation. See our recent publications for more details.
Research on the theoretical foundations of gravitational waves, including general relativity, alternative theories of gravity, and fundamental physics tests.
Computational simulations of gravitational wave sources, including binary black hole mergers, exotic compact objects, and topological defects.
Development and application of data analysis techniques for gravitational wave detectors, with a particular focus on Bayesian inference and machine learning approaches.
Study of black holes, neutron stars, and other compact objects as gravitational wave sources, from stellar-mass objects to supermassive black holes.
Research on future gravitational-wave detector concepts, including atom interferometry (AION) and binary resonance searches (GUEST).
Combining gravitational wave observations with electromagnetic and neutrino observations to gain a comprehensive understanding of astrophysical events.
Using gravitational waves to probe the early Universe, the dark sector, and the expansion history of the cosmos.
CamGW researchers collaborate with major gravitational wave observatories and research groups worldwide:
