Black Holes, Galaxy Clusters and Gravitational Waves
This thesis deals with three aspects of modern astrophysical research. We propose a Bayesian data analysis framework to test alternative theories of gravity using observations of Gravitational Waves (GWs) from the inspiral phase of binary systems. We compare General Relativity predictions to the one...
