General Relativity
General relativity is the fundamental theory for gravitational waves. But since this is a programming/data analysis oriented project, it's fine to focus more on the programming side rather than the theory side. Nevertheless, we'll try to hold some tutorial sessions to grasp some basic knowledge of general relativity.
A note that I found useful when I learned general relativity is this. There is a series of online course recording from Susskind in here.
