Marc van der Sluys


I am an astrophysicist, gravitational-wave physicist and computer scientist, based at the Dutch National Institute for Nuclear and High Energy Physics (Nikhef) in Amsterdam, and at the Institute for Gravitational and Subatomic Physics (GRASP) at Utrecht University, in the Netherlands. I work as a researcher on the detection and data analysis of gravitational waves for Virgo, LIGO and the Einstein Telescope, and teach astrophysics at the Department of Physics of Utrecht University.
