  1. Der italienische Physiker Dr. Simone Albanesi erforscht als Humboldt-Stipendiat an der #UniJena exotische Schwarze-Loch-Systeme und entwickelt Modelle für Observatorien wie #LIGO, #Virgo und #KAGRA. Seine Arbeit hilft dabei, Einsteins Relativitätstheorie unter extremen Bedingungen zu testen.

  3. 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.

  5. Today, the international LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration celebrates the successful completion of its 4th observing run (O4), marking another major step forward in the exploration of the gravitational wave universe. The run relied on coordinated observations and analyses by teams across the world.

  7. "The Jan. 1 earthquake, originating in neighboring Ishikawa Prefecture, caused unexpected movement in the mirrors controlling laser light in Kagra's gravitational wave detector, with them failing to return to their proper position"

  8. O4a, der erste Teil des 4. gemeinsamen Beobachtungslaufs der Gravitationswellen-Detektoren, neigt sich seinem Ende zu. Schauen wir daher mal auf die vorläufigen Ergebnisse (Signalkandidaten):

    ⏱️ Dauer des Laufs: 231 Tage
    🔢 81 signifikante Signalkandidaten
    🚨 Ein neuer Kandidat alle 2,9 Tage
    ➡️ gracedb.ligo.org/superevents/p
    ℹ️ aei.mpg.de/425374/current-grav

    O4a wird am 16. Januar 2024 um 16:00 UTC enden, gefolgt von einer ca. 8-wöchigen Wartungspause.

  9. As O4a, the first part of the fourth joint observing run of the gravitational-wave detector network, draws to a close, let's take a look at the preliminary results (signal candidates):

    ⏱️ Run duration: 231 days
    🔢 81 significant signal candidates
    🚨 A new candidate every 2.9 days
    ➡️ gracedb.ligo.org/superevents/p
    ℹ️ aei.mpg.de/26370/current-gravi

    O4a will end at 16:00 UTC on 16 January 2024 followed by an ~8 week maintenance break.

  10. Tuesday morning at #JSM2023 and we have two talks about continuous #GravitatiionalWaves. Unfortunately they're in simultaneous sessions. So you have your pick between me talking in the topic contributed session "Pulling Signal out of Noise for Data-Driven Discoveries in Astronomy" or Alan Knee in the invited session "The True North Strong and ... Amazing at Astrostatistics!" #LIGO #Virgo #KAGRA #ContinuousWaves #astrostatistics #NeutronStars #JSM

  12. Attending my first in person #JSM this week. It'll be speaking about searches for continuous gravitational waves Tuesday morning in the topic contributed session on "Pulling Signal out of Noise for Data-Driven Discoveries in Astronomy". #JSM2023 #GravitationalWaves #LIGO #Virgo #KAGRA

  13. Die Observatorien in den USA und Japan haben ihre Arbeit wieder aufgenommen. Das Ziel: noch mehr Gravitationswellen aufspüren, vielleicht sogar von kollabierenden Sternen.
    Die Suche nach Gravitationswellen geht weiter

  15. Gravitational-wave sleuths look for more cosmic crashes
    After three years of upgrading and waiting, due in part to the coronavirus pandemic, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory has officially resumed its hunt for the signatures of crashing black holes and neutron stars.
