New PBS video just dropped 👀

Here's a recent episode I pitched and co-scripted for PBS Space Time about the ekpyrotic cyclical universe, a cool alternative to inflationary models!

It was a pleasure to give the Institute of Astronomy, Cambridge’s outreach talk last week on black holes.

You can find clips of the video on my social accounts (richardvnd - e.g. www.linkedin.com/posts/richar...) or the full talk on the IoA YouTube channel!

We have another public open evening tonight! This week, we have Richard Dyer, talking about Black Holes.

Doors open at 6:30pm, and stargazing will follow (if the clouds allow).

We hope to stream the talk on YouTube if our audio issues can be fixed. A link will follow later this afternoon.

Really pleased to say that our paper "Black-hole Cartography" has been selected as an Editors' Suggestion! This means it is currently on the front page of the APS PRD website: journals.aps.org/prd/

I am delighted to share that our publication, "Black-Hole Cartography," has been accepted into Physical Review D.

The paper explores the spatial structure of quasinormal modes from perturbed (ringing) Kerr black holes ⚫️
