    Back to school: Basics of GW cosmology

    With the Gregoire Pierra we just submitted a contributed chapter on GW cosmology for a textbook that is the fruit of a legacy summer school on Gravitational Waves in Europe!

    The chapter really starts from the basics, and try to explain a bit of hierarchical Bayesian statistic and show how we can apply for GW cosmology. Suggested for colleagues entering in the field, undergrads, or if you need to prepare 3-4 hours of lectures.
