I just made a donation to MidwestAccessControl. You should too! midwestaccesscoalition.org/pages/donate

🆕 AAS Journal Author Series video! Maya Fishbach Maya Fishbach (Northwestern State University) chats about her article on black holes: youtube.com/watch?v=pdNhnm… The goal of this series is to connect authors w/their article, their human story & the larger #astronomy community. #ExploreAstronomy #BlackHoles


Do gravitational wave events come equally from every place in the sky? A thread about a recent (sort of) paper I was involved in with Reed Essick, Maya Fishbach, daniel holz, and Erik Katsavounidis. (Spoiler: yes, they do, so far as we can tell.). arxiv.org/abs/2207.05792

Thanks @jmezquiagabravo and daniel holz for the exciting gravitational wave cosmology workshop The University of Chicago last week! Standard sirens are the next best thing to ice cream (and come in just as many flavors, probably)


Maya Fishbach daniel holz @jmezquiagabravo The University of Chicago We have already established that most black holes are vanilla, and by virtue of the no-hair theorem do not come with toppings, but there is still much to discover

Great summary from AAS Nova about my latest paper with Chase Kimball and Vicky Kalogera!



Fun, fresh paper led by Reed Essick, asking whether GW sources are random on the sky. Although data is consistent with isotropy, we find an excess in the direction of constellation Equuleus. Gravitational-Wave Astrology Note: title is pun intended. tinyurl.com/3huhhnmr Will M Farr Maya Fishbach
