Read my article on multiple formation channels of binary black hole mergers, with special focus on AGN disks and hierarchical assembly, on the STRUCTURES Blog.

Blogpost excerpt: Estimate of the proportion of merger events arising from each channel, obtained by comparing simulated and observed black hole masses.

I’m a member of the nonprofit organization Scholé. Our mission is to involve the general public in discussions about physics, philosophy and history. We arrange weekly seminars which are open to anybody in presence or on zoom, and we organize a Summer School in Roccella Jonica (RC), Italy every year at the end of July.

If you speak Italian and you are interested in our work, check out our website and our Facebook page.
