Eugen Radu becomes a faculty member at Aveiro U.
Eugen Radu, a research fellow at U. Aveiro since 2013, became a staff member under a tenured (assistant) researcher position. Dr. Radu has given a central contribution to the development of the Gr@v group over the last decade and his permanent hiring is an important step towards the consollidation of the group.

The Robinson-Trautman (RT) spacetime is the simplest solution of General
Relativity (GR) describing a compact source surrounded by gravitational
waves. As an initial value problem, the RT spacetime evolution is a
well-posed mathematical problem. The pertinent dynamical equations are
equivalent to the so-called Calabi flow, and regular initial data evolve
