Testing the Black Hole `No-Hair' Hypothesis

Black holes (BHs) in general relativity (GR) are very simple objects. This property, that goes under the name of `no-hair', has been refined in the last few decades and admits several versions. The simplicity of BHs makes them ideal testbeds of …

Testing General Relativity with Present and Future Astrophysical Observations

One century after its formulation, Einstein's general relativity (GR) has made remarkable predictions and turned out to be compatible with all experimental tests. Most of these tests probe the theory in the weak-field regime, and there are …
