Testing the nature of dark compact objects: a status report
- V. Cardoso, P. Pani
- PhysicsLiving Reviews in Relativity
- 10 April 2019
Very compact objects probe extreme gravitational fields and may be the key to understand outstanding puzzles in fundamental physics. These include the nature of dark matter, the fate of spacetime…
Superradiance
- R. Brito, V. Cardoso, P. Pani
- PhysicsLecture Notes in Physics
- 26 January 2015
Superradiance is a radiation enhancement process that involves dissipative systems. With a 60 year-old history, superradiance has played a prominent role in optics, quantum mechanics and especially…

Testing strong-field gravity with tidal Love numbers
- V. Cardoso, E. Franzin, A. Maselli, P. Pani, G. Raposo
- Physics
- 4 January 2017
The tidal Love numbers (TLNs) encode the deformability of a self-gravitating object immersed in a tidal environment and depend significantly both on the object's internal structure and on the…
Black holes as particle detectors: evolution of superradiant instabilities
- R. Brito, V. Cardoso, P. Pani
- Physics
- 3 November 2014
Superradiant instabilities of spinning black holes can be used to impose strong constraints on ultralight bosons, thus turning black holes into effective particle detectors. However, very little is…
Testing general relativity with present and future astrophysical observations
- E. Berti, E. Barausse, M. Zilhão
- Physics
- 28 January 2015
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…
Equation-of-state-independent relations in neutron stars
- A. Maselli, V. Cardoso, V. Ferrari, L. Gualtieri, P. Pani
- Physics
- 7 April 2013
Neutron stars are extremely relativistic objects which abound in our universe and yet are poorly understood, due to the high uncertainty on how matter behaves in the extreme conditions which prevail…
Perturbed black holes in Einstein-dilaton-Gauss-Bonnet gravity: Stability, ringdown, and gravitational-wave emission
- J. L. Bl'azquez-Salcedo, C. F. Macedo, P. Pani
- Physics
- 5 September 2016
Gravitational waves emitted by distorted black holes\char22{}such as those arising from the coalescence of two neutron stars or black holes\char22{}carry not only information about the corresponding…
Slowly rotating black holes in alternative theories of gravity
- P. Pani, C. F. Macedo, L. Crispino, V. Cardoso
- Physics
- 19 September 2011
We present, in closed analytic form, a general stationary, slowly rotating black hole, which is a solution to a large class of alternative theories of gravity in four dimensions. In these theories,…
