Postdocs join us in Melbourne! “Precision Cosmic Expansion in the Era of Gravitational-Wave Astronomy” with 1 role at Swinburne University of Technology and 1 at Monash Astrophysics ozgrav.org/swin-postdoc.h… Applications close 5pm 19 Aug AEST (UTC+10)

The Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Gravitational Wave Discovery OzGrav just received the amazingly excellent news from the Australian Research Council that it has been funded for another 7 years! Thanks to everyone involved in the bid and this domain of science! 😍😍😍

Success!!

“God provided these pulsars for us, and now we have to time them religiously” Yuri Levin. Very early contender for quote of the week at #GWPAW22

Black hole carnivals may produce the signals seen by gravitational-wave detectors, say OzGrav and Monash University and Cambridge University researchers ✨ Dr Mayoress Isobel Romero-Shaw ✨ Paul Lasky Eric Thrane ozgrav.org/news/black-hol…

Cool! Nice explanatory video on OzGrav's next mission. How an Australian Detector could Revolutionise Gravitational Wave Astronomy. #FindingNEMO OzGrav Paul Lasky youtu.be/5nFcCTkuB8M via YouTube - thanks Rudra Sekhri - great work!

I'm betting on neutron stars being a little bit soft and squishy, but also a little bit hard. I wrote a piece in Nature News & Views that does not explain my line of reasoning at all! But it does talk about a really interesting new result published in nature by Cecilia Chirenti et al

The pitch of oscillations in the γ-rays emitted when neutron stars collide could provide insight into the hottest and densest matter in the Universe. Learn all about it in this fab N&V by Paul Lasky go.nature.com/3GznAhm

Hey folks, come work with me! We are looking for 2 astronomers at RHUL Physics: inspirehep.net/jobs/2645655

Neutron star equations of state used to be measured on a scale from hard to soft. From today, they will be measured on the cat-chonkiness scale.

My first *first author* paper is live! Very grateful to my supervisors and co-authors Matthew Miles, Greg Ashton (Greg Ashton), Paul Lasky (Paul Lasky), Eric Thrane, Daniel Reardon, Ryan Shannon and Andrew Cameron (Andrew Cameron)! OzGrav arxiv.org/abs/2304.02793

We just had an excellent meeting of OzGrav Chief Investigators in #Adelaide to start planning a Southern Hemisphere 3rd generation gravitational wave detector to be located in #Australia. We have a long but exciting road ahead! 🛣️🌊 Australian Institute of Physics Australian Academy of Science LIGO ourANU

"This is the first time we’ve seen a neutron star collide with a black hole where the neutron star could have been shredded to pieces before the collision. If that’s the case, it would have produced some amazing fireworks,” says A/Prof. Paul Lasky from Monash University/OzGrav
