6. Black holes and trapped surfaces
Abstract : The study of black holes is an important part of general relativity. However, the very definition of black holes is not completely satisfactory. Alternative definitions are based on the concept of trapped surfaces. This licentiate thesis is based on work with the aim to better understand the behaviour of such trapped surfaces. READ MORE

7. X-ray variability in Galactic high-mass black hole binaries
Abstract : The stars of the night sky can to the naked eye appear to be steady and unchanging, apart from the twinkling created by air moving in the atmosphere. However, when viewed in X-rays, the sky is far from constant, with detectable changes occurring on very short timescales.Black hole X-ray binaries are strong sources of X-rays. READ MORE

8. Shapes of Spacetimes : Collected tales of black holes
Abstract : In theory, the existence of black holes is predicted by general relativity. In reality, there is a general consensus that they exist in space; in particular at the center of many galaxies. The theory of black holes has been around for decades, but there are still interesting questions calling for attention. READ MORE

9. Cosmological models, nonideal fluids and viscous forces in general relativity
Abstract : This thesis addresses the open questions of providing a cosmological model describing an accelerated expanding Universe without violating the energy conditions or a model that contributes to the physical interpretation of the dark energy. The former case is analyzed considering a closed model based on a regular lattice of black holes using the Einstein equation in vacuum. READ MORE

10. Linear response theory: from black holes to Weyl systems and back
Abstract : Linear response theory is a powerful calculation tool in quantum field theory. We apply this framework to a variety of models originating from distinct areas in theoretical physics and for different reasons. READ MORE
