Black holes talk by Sarp Akcay

September 9, 2015 barry

My office mate Sarp Akcay recently gave a nice public talk on “Black Holes: from a mathematical curiosity to Hollywood blockbuster” as part of the Pint of Science festival. Check it out to get an idea of the kind of research our group is interested in.

Dr Barry Wardell

I am an Associate Professor in the School of Mathematics and Statistics at University College Dublin. My research interests involve the study of black holes, gravitational waves and cosmic strings. I am particularly focused on numerical and perturbation theory approaches to solving Einstein’s equations of General Relativity. I am leader of the UCD Relativity group, a co-lead of the Multiscale Self-Force collaboration, a member of the LISA DDPC, the LISA Consortium and LISA Ireland, a founding developer of the Black Hole Perturbation Toolkit, a contributor to the Einstein Toolkit, and PI on the EMRIWaveforms ERC Advanced Grant.
