Quantum black holes in the sky?

Jul. 09, 2017

The past decade has witnessed significant breakthroughs in understanding the quantum nature of black holes, with insights coming from quantum information theory, numerical relativity, and string theory.  At the same time, astrophysical and gravitational wave observations can now provide an unprecedented window into the phenomenology of black hole horizons. Together with Niyaesh Afshordi and Samir Mathur, Vitor Cardoso is organizing the Quantum black holes in the sky workshop at Perimeter Institute, which seeks to bring together leading experts in these fields to explore new theoretical and observational opportunities and synergies that could improve our physical understanding of quantum black holes.
