Aspects of Black Hole Physics: Scalar Sources, Holography and Gravitational Wave Emission
… can act as black hole mimickers, in particular boson stars and wormholes. We discuss the existence and the stability of boson stars in higher dimensions and boson stars built with multiple scalars. We compute tidal Love numbers for various mimickers and discuss how to distinguish black holes …

Numerical Modelling of the Dynamics and Gravitational Radiation of Compact Binaries in General Relativity
… holes (BH) and the precise modelling neutron stars (NS). The gravitational waves from the inspirals and collisions of BHs and NSs can be measured by large interferometer experiments such as the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) which lead to the 2017 Nobel prize in …

Numerical modelling of gravitational wave sources in general relativity
… of a more exotic type of compact object: boson stars (BSs) which are comprised of complex scalar field matter. In particular, we investigate the construction of suitable initial data describing BS binaries and its effect on the ensuing evolutions.

Uncovering gravitational wave signatures of modified theories of gravity and exotic matter
… and merger of binary black holes and neutron stars, and understand how their modelled data fit within the manifold of our GW observations. A key ingredient in source modelling of binary systems is numerical relativity (NR), allowing us to resolve the merger regime and forming the foundation of …
