Overview

Our COST Action has the main goal to further the understanding of the general phenomenon of Black Holes by bringing together Black Hole scientists from all mass-ranges and all over Europe. This Action consists of the following WGs:

• WG 1 (Xavier Calmet): Working group on quantum black holes (QBHs)
• WG 2 (Anthony Rushton & Robert Ferdman): Stellar Black Holes & Pulsars
• WG 3 (Andreas Eckart): The Galactic Centre Black Hole
• WG 4 (Eduardo Ros): Supermassive Black Holes

Working Groups (WG) meetings shall provide all participants with the opportunity to get to know Black Hole experts from all aspects of this research field, to discuss ideas and "burning" scientific questions and develop new strategies/projects to tackle them. They are organized by the COST Action and take place all over Europe.
