Black holes, gravitational waves and fundamental physics: a roadmap.

Leor Barack, +205 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive overview of the state of the art in the relevant fields of research, summarize important open problems, and lay out a roadmap for future progress can be found in this article, where the authors present a concise, yet comprehensive overview.

Black holes, gravitational waves and fundamental physics: a roadmap

Leor Barack, +231 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive overview of the state of the art in the relevant fields of research, summarize important open problems, and lay out a roadmap for future progress can be found in this article, which is an initiative taken within the framework of the European Action on 'Black holes, Gravitational waves and Fundamental Physics'.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prospects for Fundamental Physics with LISA

Enrico Barausse, +320 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the future potential of the LISA mission in the area of fundamental physics is further delineated and sharpen by identifying the sources that are currently expected to provide the principal contribution to our knowledge, and the areas that need further development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Echoes of Kerr-like wormholes

TL;DR: In this paper, the waveform of echoes in static and stationary, traversable wormholes in which perturbations are governed by a symmetric effective potential is studied. But the waveforms are dominated by the wormhole quasinormal frequency nearest to the fundamental black hole frequency that controls the primary signal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-extremal black hole microstates: fuzzballs of fire or fuzzballs of fuzz?

TL;DR: In this article, the authors constructed the first family of microstate geometries of near-extremal black holes, by placing metastable supertube probes inside certain scaling supersymmetric smooth microstate geometry, which differs from the classical black hole solution macroscopically at the horizon scale and for certain probes the fluctuations between various fuzzballs will be visible as thermal noise far away from the horizon.
