The high precision afforded by gravitational waves and black hole imaging observations have begun to open up the opportunity to test the black hole paradigm. As observations continue to improve, the need to better understand theoretical models of black hole mimicking ultra compact objects is becoming increasingly urgent. This workshop aims to bridge the gap by bringing together the three key communities working on complementary aspects of the problem—gravitational wave observations, black hole imaging, and well motivated theoretical modeling.
With a series of talks, reviews, updates, and discussions, this workshop aims to connect theoretical developments with current and future observations, stimulate discussions across disciplines, identify open problems, and brainstorm a roadmap to map the most productive path forward.
