Explore modified theories of gravity and exotic compact objects in this 46-minute conference talk delivered at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into alternative gravitational theories beyond general relativity and examine the properties and implications of exotic compact objects in the context of gravitational-wave astronomy. Learn about theoretical frameworks that extend Einstein's theory of gravity and discover how these modifications could manifest in gravitational-wave observations. Investigate the characteristics of compact objects that differ from conventional black holes and neutron stars, including their potential signatures in gravitational-wave detectors. Gain insights into how these theoretical concepts contribute to our understanding of fundamental physics and their relevance to the future of gravitational-wave astronomy, presented as part of a comprehensive discussion meeting celebrating the 10th anniversary of gravitational-wave detection.
