Charles Dalang

Dr. Charles Dalang is a Visiting Researcher at Queen Mary University of London's School of Physical and Chemical Sciences, Department of Physics and Astronomy. His work focuses on gravitational wave physics, cosmology, and alternative theories of gravity. He holds a PhD from the University of Geneva (2022), an MSc from ETH Zürich, and a BSc from EPFL, all in Physics. A member of LISA's cosmology working group since 2018, his research bridges cosmological models and gravitational wave observations, addressing topics like dark energy, modified gravity, and large-scale structure.

Research interests include observer-dependent cosmology, cosmic microwave background physics, and applications of gravitational wave astronomy to test gravity. His recent work explores peculiar velocity effects on cosmological parameters, standard sirens, and LISA mission science.

Publications span 15+ peer-reviewed articles since 2020, tackling issues such as kinematic dipole tensions, screening mechanisms in black hole binaries, and polarization distortions in lensed gravitational waves. Collaborations emphasize interdisciplinary approaches to cosmological puzzles.
