Is the gravitational-wave ringdown a probe of the event horizon?
It is commonly believed that the ringdown signal from a binary coalescence provides a
conclusive proof for the formation of an event horizon after the merger. This expectation is …

Testing general relativity with present and future astrophysical observations
One century after its formulation, Einstein's general relativity (GR) has made remarkable
predictions and turned out to be compatible with all experimental tests. Most of these tests …
