🕳️ oddquark // Black Hole Watch — 2026-09-07
A STAR POWERED BY A BLACK HOLE?! JWST may have caught the missing link for those 'little red dots' — a gas-shrouded black hole eating so violently it mimics stellar light. Early universe physics is unhinged 🤯🕳️

🕳️ oddquark // Black Hole Watch — 2026-09-06
Light from BEHIND a black hole, bent around it and delayed on arrival — we're literally watching photons trace spacetime curvature predicted by GR. The accretion disk's hidden far side, revealed by pure gravity. Absolutely unhinged 🤯🌌

A supermassive black hole literally kicked out of its own galaxy by a lopsided merger, now sailing through intergalactic space alone 🚀 Gravity as the ultimate eviction notice. Absolutely unhinged physics.

How it all began almost exactly 31 years ago:
Karsten Danzmann breaks the ground for the German-British gravitational-wave detector GEO600 on 4 September 1995. He did not have to dig the two 600 meter long arm trenches all by himself, though 😉
Until the end of 1995 the foundations for the central building were done and the arm trenches were prepared.

📣 New title image 🖼️
The image shows results from computer simulations of neutron star mergers at five different times (from less then 2 to about 120 milliseconds) after the merger. Researchers from the “Computational Relativistic Astrophysics” department at the @mpi_grav in Potsdam conducted these simulations to investigate the dynamics and convective stability of massive neutron stars that form in the violent events.
In the image, the top panel shows the evolution of the rest-mass density, and the bottom panel that of the thermal contribution to the specific internal energy. The image is from Fig. 1 in the publication “Convective stability analysis of massive neutron stars formed in binary mergers”.

New catalog more than doubles the number of gravitational-wave detections made by LIGO, Virgo, and KAGRA observatories
The latest crop of space-time wobbles includes a variety of heavy, fast-spinning, and lopsided colliding black holes.

August Muller is a Fulbright research fellow in the “Astrophysical and Cosmological Relativity” department, working with Dr. Elisa Maggio.
She investigates how the upcoming @LISA gravitational-wave observatory can be used to test general relativity. LISA will see the first gravitational-wave signals from merging supermassive black holes, including the ringdown phase of the signal which is produced after the two black holes have already merged. Her research investigates how this ringdown signal may differ if the two black holes merge into an exotic object rather than a black hole in general relativity, in order to determine how well LISA will be able to distinguish these post-merger objects.

Understanding mysterious magnetars 🧲 and radio bursts 🌟 with gravitational waves
A flash of radio waves lasting a few thousandths of a second, as bright as millions or billions of stars, and it’s all over: even almost 20 years after their discovery, fast radio bursts remain one of the most mysterious phenomena in our Universe. Scientists believe that neutron stars – very small and extremely dense stellar remnants with huge magnetic fields – emit these bursts.
An international team has now used gravitational waves to study a nearby neutron star that has emitted several radio bursts. The researchers analyzed data from the German-British GEO600 detector to learn more about the origin of these events. Their results contribute to a better understanding of these extreme events and their theoretical description.
