This plan of activities includes some lines of investigation aimed at studying amplitudesscattering in several cases of interest. More specifically, this plan has as general objectives thestudy of scattering amplitudes in gauge and gravitation theories, seeking to concentratein the calculation of classical observables, as well as the analysis of inflationary correlators andunitarity in co…
Gravitational waves are propagating ripples in space-time geometry, pro-duced by the accelerated motion of massive astrophysical objects or by cos-mological sources, and they have been first observed by the Advanced LaserInterferometer Gravitational Observatory (LIGO) in September 2015, whenthe signal from coalescing black holes have been detected, confirming thepredictions of General Rel…
Gravitational waves are propagating ripples in space-time geometry, produced bythe accelerated motion of massive astrophysical objects or by cosmologicalsources, and they have been first observed by the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational Observatory (LIGO) in September 2015, when the signal from a pairof coalescing black holes were detected. Since then, during the observationrun …
The gravitational wave astronomy era will start in a few years time, with the most likely candidate source for repeated detection being coalescing binaries made of compact objects like neutron stars and stellar mass black holes. However, for earth-based detectors like LIGO and Virgo the signals are buried deeply within the instrumental noise, thus a detailed knowledge of the signal itself…
Gravitational waves (GW) were predicted by Einstein as a consequence of his theory of general relativity. They are produced when mass and energy distributions change their configuration; they present themselves as wave- like distortions of the space-time metric. Only extreme cosmological and astrophysical events may produce GWs at a detectable leveI. This includes the early universe, supe…

The recent detections of gravitational waves by the interferometersLIGO and Virgo not only enabled the beginning of a new science,gravitational wave astronomy, but also spurred theoretical investigation to deepen the understanding of two-body gravitational dynamics.In particular, applying the powerful tools of effective field theoryto classical gravitational scattering has been useful in …
Standard sirens: black or bright?The recent detections of gravitational waves from coalescing binaries have opened new possibilities for investigating the cosmological expansion history of the Universe.The successful candidate is expected to work at the interface of cosmology and gravitational waves, focusing on maximizing the scientific output of standard sirens, both with and without el…
