Fundamental Physics in the Era of Gravitational-wave Astronomy: The Direct Measurement of Gravitational-wave Polarizations and Other Topics
<p>In this thesis, I explore several avenues for learning about fundamental physics from gravitational-wave (GW) observations. In particular, I focus on the phenomenological study of basic properties of GWs in ways that require minimal assumptions about the underlying nature of gravity. I plac...
