Pulsars don’t have to be in binaries to make #GravitationalWaves - they can produce continuous waves too. The Einstein@Home MPI GravPhys team explained how home computers are helping the search for these signals (p. 18)


This is a picture of the pulsar found by Einstein@Home project running on #BOINC #DistributedComputing #VolunteerComputing #GridComputing #CitizenScience






Gravitational-wave experts at MPI GravPhys this #ExpertsWednesday: the permanent independent Max Planck Society research group “Continuous Gravitational Waves” led by M. Alessandra Papa aei.mpg.de/continuouswaves. Expertise: continuous gravitational waves, Einstein@Home. #Waiting4O4 #O4

Want to help in the search for gravitational waves without being a scientist yourself? No problem, just support our citizen science project Einstein@Home. ℹ️ einstein-online.info/en/spotlight/e… ➡️ einsteinathome.org #O4 #CitizenScience #GravitationalWaves

If you haven't heard, GPU work is ending at MilkyWay@home . The project will continue but will be CPU only. We are recommending moving to Einstein@Home if you want to keep crunching GPU work for similar research. boincusa.com/forum/index.ph… #boincusa

Exciting news released by our colleagues NANOGrav PFC, European Pulsar Timing Array, InPTA, CSIRO_ATNF and Chinese Pulsar Timing Array today. Congratulations on opening up the nanohertz frequency band of #gravitationalwave astronomy!!

Today Einstein@Home joins The Zooniverse: Citizen scientists can now also use their eyes and brains to help find new #pulsars. ℹ️ aei.mpg.de/1087398/einste… Volunteers classify graphical representations of Einstein@Home results ⬇️ to discover more pulsars in #Arecibo data.


We've just launched a new The Zooniverse project called “Pulsar Seekers” to help classify radio pulsar candidates. Please, use your eyes and your intellect to help us to find new pulsars: ℹ️ einsteinathome.org/content/new-zo…“pulsar-seekers” ➡️ zooniverse.org/projects/rseng… #CitizenScience


.NASAFermi Nets Nearly 300 Gamma-Ray Pulsars … and Counting – One in six of the discoveries were made by MPI GravPhys researchers. 1 catalog, 294 gamma-ray emitting pulsars and 34 candidates, 53 pulsars discovered at MPI GravPhys and with Einstein@Home. ℹ️ aei.mpg.de/1083085/nasa-s…
