Sascha Husa

Dr. Sascha Husa is a Researcher in the Theoretical Physics Department at the University of the Balearic Islands (UIB), specializing in gravitational waves and numerical relativity. He is a core member of the UIB Relativity and Gravitation Group, which plays a leading role in international collaborations such as LIGO, Virgo, LISA, and the Einstein Telescope project.

• Teaching: Dr. Husa has taught graduate courses including Relatividad y Geometría, Ondas Gravitacionales, and Agujeros Negros (2020–2023), as well as undergraduate courses like Física General II and Cálculo Tensorial y Grupos.
• Research Focus: His work spans theoretical and applied aspects of numerical relativity, including hyperbolic formulations of Einstein equations, gauge choices, singularity avoidance, finite-volume algorithms, and constraint-preserving boundary conditions. He contributes to gravitational wave detection and data analysis.
• Collaborations: Dr. Husa is involved in major projects like the Institute of Applied Computing & Community Code (IAC3) and the Institute of Space Studies of Catalonia (IEEC), with access to international computing resources (e.g., BSC, CESGA, LRZ Munich).
