Welcome to the Gravity Group of the Physics Department at UMass Dartmouth. This website is about different aspects of theoretical and computational gravitational physics, in particular: Black Holes and Quantum Cosmology. All technical papers related to our research are available on the gr-qc list at the e-print archive. Here is an explicit list of a few selected articles. Research in this group is supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF), MA Space Grant Consortium (NASA), UMass internal grants, Glaser Trust of New York, Foundational Questions Institute (FQXi) and private industry (Apple, Sony and others). Interested students and general public should contact Gaurav Khanna (gkhanna-at-umassd-dot-edu) for any queries or suggestions.
Check out our new PS3 cluster for various research projects, that was made possible owing to a generous, partial donation from Sony.
