DESCRIPTION:The field of gravitational wave physics and black hole physics
  has undergone a tremendous transformation over the past decade. So far\, 
 about 200 mergers of compact objects have been seen through gravitational 
 waves\, but how and where these compact binaries form remain outstanding k
 ey questions. I will show several novel approaches on how to probe the ori
 gin of these sources\, both on a population level and for individual event
 s. I will bring in new ideas related to phaseshifts and strong lensing\, a
 nd discuss the prospects in the era of LIGO\, but also comment on how LISA
  and the Einstein Telescope will soon revolutionise this field.\nAbout the
  speaker: Johan Samsing is an Assistant Professor in Theoretical Astrophy
 sics at the university of Copenhagen. He joined the NBIA as a Louis-Hansen
  Assistant Professor and Marie Curie Fellow in 2019. In 2020 he received a
  Villum Young Investigator Grant to establish a group at the NBIA dedicate
 d to gravitational-wave astrophysics. Johan received his PhD from the Niel
 s Bohr Institute (DARK) in 2014\, after which he moved to Princeton Univer
 sity\, first as an Einstein Fellow and then as a Spitzer Fellow. He curren
 tly works on the astrophysical formation of gravitational-wave sources and
  the origin of black hole mergers.\nIn the OKC: SU-astro corridor\, AlbaNo
