Research Interests

My current research interests include:

  • Strong-gravity tests of general relativity with neutron stars/black holes
  • Stellar and black hole perturbation theories and emission of gravitational waves
  • The two-body problem
  • Neutron star astrophysics, including equation of state constraints

Notes

Here are some notes (technical or semi-technical) related with my studies.

  1. Relativistic gravity, compact objects and strong-field gravity.
