Study: Pair of Distinct Black Hole Mergers Reveals Clues on How They Form and Evolve
The mergers, measured one month apart in 2024 by LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration, advance scientific understanding of the nature of black hole formation and fundamental physics; offer evidence of "seco...

Victoria Niu (grad student @pennstateuniv.bsky.social) and the rest of the gstlal team have designed a cool search targeting binary neutron star mergers, and then found one in the recently released O4a data from @ligo.org! I helped with the astrophysical inference 🙂

Hubble constant constraint using 117 FRBs with a more accurate probability density function for ${\rm DM}_{\rm diff}$
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are among the most mysterious astronomical transients. Due to their short durations and cosmological distances, their dispersion measure (DM) - redshift ($z$) relation is usef...
