A Consistency Test for Kerr Black Holes via Orbital Motion, Ringdown, and Imaging
Kerr Trisector Closure (KTC) is a consistency test for the Kerr hypothesis that tries to stay honest about what is actually being inferred from data. The guiding principle is simple: if the exterior spacetime of an astrophysical, stationary, uncharged black … Continue reading

The Kerr Trisector Closure: A project on internal consistency tests of General Relativity
General Relativity describes gravity as the curvature of spacetime. Mass and energy determine this curvature, and physical phenomena such as orbital motion, gravitational radiation, and the propagation of light are governed by the resulting geometry. In this framework gravity is … Continue reading
