- Raffaele Tripiccione (FE)
Current cosmological observations are in agreement with the standard cosmological model of a homogeneous and isotropic Universe at large scales, based on General Relativity and on the standard model (SM) of particle physics, complemented with a mechanism for the generation of primordial perturbations, i.e., the inflationary paradigm. When interpreted in minimal extensions of this ΛCDM...
I will report on the use of INFN HPC resources made by the INFN TEONGRAV group. The focus of the numerical simulations performed within the TEONGRAV collaboration is on the modelling of compact object binaries, as sources of gravitational waves and electromagnetic signals, and on the study of the formation channels of black hole binaries.
An out-of-equilibrium, isolated and uniform over-density of massive particles relax towards a quasi-stationary state close to virial equilibrium through a monolithic collapse driven by its own mean gravitational field. If the system initially breaks spherical symmetry and has some angular momentum such a dissipationless dynamics may give rise to a disk with persistent far...
