The Biography

Delilah Gates is a graduate student in the Physics Department at Harvard University. Before joining Harvard, she earned two Bachelors of Science, one physics and one math, from the University of Maryland, College Park. She studies high-spin black holes and gravity working to analytically characterize observational signatures of near extremal Kerr black hole using the emergent near-horizon conformal symmetry. Her interests include (near) extremal black hole geometries, black hole binaries, AdS/CFT correspondence, and black hole entropy.
