Samuel Patrone

Samuel Patrone is a Researcher in the Department of Physics at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), part of the Division of Physics, Mathematics and Astronomy. His work focuses on gravitational wave astronomy, particle physics, and cosmology, with active involvement in the LIGO-Virgo collaboration. He specializes in analyzing gravitational wave data from compact binary coalescences, dark matter constraints, and multi-messenger astrophysics.

Patrone's research includes contributions to the GWTC-2.1 catalog of gravitational wave events, studies on dark photon dark matter, and searches for gravitational wave signals associated with fast radio bursts and gamma-ray bursts. His theoretical work explores quark-lepton unification and regularization schemes in cosmological models.

He collaborates with major observatories including LIGO, Virgo, CHIME/FRB, Fermi, and Swift. Though not explicitly mentioned in the provided texts, his work likely contributes to Caltech's initiatives in the Institute for Quantum Information and Matter (IQIM) and the Infrared Processing and Analysis Center (IPAC).
