Gr@v is a team of researchers, based at the Mathematics and Physics Department of Aveiro University, Portugal, working on strong gravity and high energy physics. The group was established in 2010. In January 2015 Gr@v integrated the FCT funded CIDMA research unit (UIDB/04106/2020 and UIDP/04106/2020), as the Gravitational Geometry and Dynamics research group. The group scientific coordinator is C. Herdeiro.

The Beyond the Standard Model BrainStorming Meeting, BSM2, will take place at Aveiro University, hosted by the gr@v group, from 10-14 October 2022.
Gr@v member Ivo Sengo was one of the participants in the 4th Physics Conference of Portuguese-Speaking Countries – 4CFPLP, that took place in Cape Verde, from 12-16 September 2022. Ivo delivered a contributed talk on "Black hole shadows".
Our collaborator Kunihito Uzawa from Japan together with Zakaria Belkhadria, a Ph.D. student from U. Cagliari, Italy, are our guests this week. Zakaria is visiting us within a short term scientific mission of the COST action CA18108.
The 3rd Workshop on Compact Objects, Gravitational Waves and Deep Learning will take place on 23 Sep 2022 at the University of Minho, after the first and second workshops of this series in Aveiro and Valencia, repectively.
Our group collaborated with the Escola de Verão de Astronomia, of Instituto Superior Técnico, targeting high school students, with a lecture by C. Herdeiro on Cosmology (9 Set 2022).
Gr@v member C. Herdeiro was one of the invited speakers of "Física 2022" the 23rd national conference of the Portuguese Physics Society, delivering the talk "Buracos Negros: de uma equação ao Nobel" (photo courtesy of A. Folhas).
We bid farewell (with a Peruvian flavour) to Alexandre Pombo, that will join Charles University in Prague for his next post-doctoral position. See you soon Alexandre!
Gr@v members A. Morais, J. Pino and V. Vatellis represented the group at the Workshop on Multi-Higgs models, in Lisbon, delivering talks about their work. Long term collaborator R. Pasechnik, from Lund University, also joins for the picture.
