The Catalan Foundation for Research and Innovation (FCRI) talks to our cosmologist Licia Verde about the most powerful gravitational wave source ever discovered.
Licia Verde is an ICREA professor since 2007, and belongs to the Cosmology and Large Scale Structure research group at the Institute of Cosmos Sciences. Cosmology is the field of astrophysics that studies the origin, evolution and composition of the universe. Her group focuses on finding explanations for some of the still unanswered questions of cosmology, such as what dark energy is, or what originated the universe’s primordial perturbations.
