Overview

The Physics program is offered at the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee .

Key facts

The research in gravitational physics is in several areas: In gravitational-wave astronomy, we play a leading role in LIGO, extracting signals of gravitational-waves from the coalescence of binary neutron stars and black holes, as well as searching for electromagnetic counterparts, and in the use of pulsars to measure gravitational waves from supermassive black holes. In relativistic astrophysics we study black hole structure and evolution, have established limits on the spin and mass of rotating neutron stars, and develop computational techniques to model merging stars.

Astronomy efforts include studying early galaxy formation and evolution, the phenomenology of neutron stars and white dwarfs, and numerical computation of stellar interactions.
