Analogue models of Gravity are systems in which classical or quantum fields, in certain regimes, perceive an effective curved geometry, allowing one to test in laboratory effects that cannot normally be observed in gravitational systems. The most significant example of this is the recent detection of the Hawking effect in analogue black holes, nearly 40 years after Unruh's theoretical pro…
The general theory of relativity has been tested numerous times since its inception. An important prediction, which is related to the no-hair theorems of general relativity, is that all astrophysical black holes in the universe are described by the Kerr metric (the so-called Kerr hypothesis). A possible way to test the Kerr hypothesis and the theory of general relativity is through the da…
Analogue models of gravity are physical systems that, in certain regimes, behave identically as gravitational systems. As shown by Unruh, fluid perturbations satisfy the same equations that a scalar field in a curved spacetime satisfy. This analogy predicts that typical gravitational phenomena, like Hawking radiation and superradiance, can be observed in Hydrodynamics or Condensed Matter.…
Exterior Algebra and differential forms have several applications in Mathematics and Physics, allowing a simpler and more concise description of Maxwell's electromagnetism and Einstein's General Relativity. From fundamental mathematical concepts, like the definitions of manifolds and tensors, this undergraduate research project proposes a detailed and mathematically rigorous study of diff…
Wave phenomena are present in several areas and can be understood from two different perspectives: the formulation in the time domain and the formulation in the frequency domain. Using the wave equation around a Schwarzschild spacetime, this project explores these two formulation. First, they will be studied independently; later, their relation will be analyzed. During all the project, we…

We propose a 6-month research internship at the University of Nottingham (UoN), UK, under the supervision of Silke Weinfurtner. This research will focus on analogue models of Gravity, specially those based on the propagation of surface waves on water. The experimental setup, already assembled at the UoN, will allow the investigation of two important Black hole physics phenomena, namely su…
This project enables two experts in the field of analogue gravity and black hole scattering to advance their ground-breaking theoretical and experimental work on the study of black hole kinematics in hydrodynamic systems. We propose studies that bring together rotating black holes from General Relativity (GR) and rotating fluids in water systems. We will investigate the propagation of wav…
We propose a six month visit to CENTRA (Centro Multidisciplinar para Astrofísica), at Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), in Lisbon, for an internship abroad under the supervision of Professor Vitor Cardoso. The internship will allow for a systematic study of superradiance in non-axisymmetric systems. The project will focus on analogue models without axial symmetry, the Majumdar-Papapetrou …
