报告摘要:

The direct detection of Gravitational Waves from a collision between two black holes in 2015 marked that we have entered a new era of exploring our Universe. Binary black hole and neutron star mergers are the primary sources of gravitational waves. High-accuracy theoretical predictions for the motion of compact binary systems are the most fundamental tools for interpreting data from present and future detectors, such as LIGO-Virgo-Kagra, Einstein Telescope, Tianqin and Taiji. Recently, I have played a pioneering role in the development of a new framework aiming at efficiently calculating gravitational observables by employing cutting-edge technology from Quantum Field Theory and modern mathematics. Using this novel method, we have obtained state-of-the-art results in the dynamics of binary systems.
