4-dimensional numbers to better understand gravitational waves

on September 23, 2019

The quaternions, numbers generalizing complex numbers in dimension 4, allow to build a new method of analysis of the frequency and geometric content of gravitational waves and to reveal the dynamics of black hole binaries coalescent. Julien Flamant was interested in this subject during his thesis at the Centre de Recherche en Informatique, Signal et Automatique in Lille
