  1. Le 17 août 2017 occupe une place spéciale dans la mémoire des astrophysiciens. En cette journée, les caractéristiques d'un événement d'ondes gravitationnelles (GW170817) suggèrent la première détection d'une fusion d'étoiles à neutrons. Un branle-bas de combat digne des meilleurs films d'action allait ensuite animer 70 équipes d'astrophysiciens pendant deux mois!

  16. It has been, somewhat unbelievably, just over seven years since we detected #GW170817, which was notable for just how many firsts it represented in astronomy:
    + First observed merger of two neutron stars
    + First observation of #GravitationalWaves and light from the same event
    + First confirmed kilonova from a neutron star collision.
    You'll find lots of coverage in the fediverse from @LIGO, but I'll leave you with this infographic I made, and my colleague translated into Glasgow dialect...

  25. #GW170817 is the #GravitationalWave with the closest source. It is one of our loudest detections

    Binary neutron stars are lower mass than black hole binaries, so their chirps are much longer

  30. #GW170817's source was identified as in galaxy NGC 4993. It was observed using telescopes for all parts of the electromagnetic spectrum, making it one of the most studied astronomical events ever! It's afterglow was still visible years after the merger

  35. Combining data from LIGO Livingston, LIGO Hanford and Virgo, we localized #GW170817's source on the sky. Having 3 detectors is crucial for this

    Using this localization, teams of astronomers from around the world were able to successfully hunt for GW170817's kilonova
