Lensing of space time around a black hole. At Oxford we study black holes observationally and theoretically on all size and time scales - it is some of our core work.

  • About

I'm a 2nd year DPhil student studying the 'plunging region' of black hole accretion discs under the supervison of Prof. Steven Balbus. My work involves running global General Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamics (GRMHD) simulations of the plunging flow and comparing them to analytic theories.
