From Sumeet Kulkarni 🐋 and Jessie Thwaites: From PTAs to ground-based gravitational wave interfermeters, many exciting discoveries have been made in the field of gravitational wave astronomy. Today we have an overview of it for you in this guide! astrobites.org/2023/11/08/gui…

New astrobites post from me! Join me in learning about one of the strangest ideas in multimessenger astrophysics I’ve seen to date

Forget X-ray Vision: Using Gravitational Waves to Peer Inside the Sun astrobites's Lucas Brown reports on the far-out possibility of using continuous gravitational waves from faraway pulsars to learn about the inside of the Sun. aasnova.org/2023/12/05/for…


From Lucas Brown: In today’s paper, a unique gravitational wave event is re-examined as the possible origin of an AGN flare. What are the odds? astrobites.org/2024/01/20/bla…

From Alex Masegian: Today’s bite reports the first-ever discovery of intermediate-mass stripped stars, which are thought to be the main progenitors of stripped-envelope supernovae! astrobites.org/2024/02/28/the…

From astrobites: The genocide in Gaza demands our attention and our action. As astronomers and members of the global scientific community, we cannot ignore the immense suffering and devastation inflicted upon our colleagues. astrobites.org/2024/03/27/ast…

From Lucas Brown: If primordial black holes exist, one place we might find them is in binary systems with other objects like planets or asteroids. Today’s paper explores how common these systems might be and how to go about finding them. 🔭✨️ astrobites.org/2024/09/12/pri…



From Lucas Brown Lucas Brown : Today’s paper explores how we can use simulations of stellar populations to rapidly estimate the identity of the lensing object in a microlensing event. 🔭✨ astrobites.org/2024/10/24/a-m…
