Rhondale (Ron) Tso
(Astro)Physics Graduate Student

I am a graduate student in physics at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) working with Dr. Yanbei Chen where I am fully support by the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship, the Ford Foundation Predoctoral Fellowship, and Gates Foundation. My primary interests are in relativity, gravitational waves, and cosmology where I am a member of both the Theoretical AstroPhysics Including Relativity (TAPIR) Group and the LIGO Scientific Collaboration (half-membership). In particular, I work on tests of relativity and astrophysics through gravitational wave observations, some examples being beyond-GR dispersion & polarization, GW ringdown tests of GR, and next generation detectors.
