Sharmathie Fernando work at Department of Physics, Geology and Engineering Technology of the Northern Kentucky University. Her research is based on General Theory of Relativity and Black Holes. General Theory of Relativity is a geometric theory and it relates the matter and energy content of the universe to the curvature of space-time. One of the profound predictions of General Theory of Relativity is the existence of black holes in our universe.
She has worked on number of topics on black holes in the past: solutions to Einstein’s equations, gravitational lensing, quasi-normal modes of black holes, black holes as particle accelerators, particle motion around black holes, thermodynamics of black holes etc. Currently She's involved in several projects.
