I had so much fun presenting our @eso.org Expanding horizons idea for the Time Domain Telescope and its connection to multi-messenger astrophysics at the @germanastrosoc.bsky.social meeting organized by the Deutsches Zentrum für Astrophysik in the really pretty town Görlitz. 🔭🧪

This week we welcomed the BlackGEM collaboration for a team meeting at Hamburg Observatory. We had lots of exciting science presentations and many fruitful conversations about the amazing science we already have been doing with BlackGEM and will be doing in the future.

Three weeks ago my close collaborator and friend Brad N. Barlow came to visit us at the observatory with one of his graduate students. We had a great collaboration meeting with lots of inspiring discussions!

The images show the photometric measurements for this object taken with the Oskar Luehning Telescope. The dips occur when one object of the binary moves in front of the other component which happens on a regular binary period of 39 minutes. Cluster of Excellence Quantum Universe

I had a blast talking about the incredible science we will do with LISA at the @uni-hamburg.de Wissen vom Fass event in this cozy bar in Hamburg

Congratulations to my former Master Student Corey Bradshaw for his first 1st author paper: arxiv.org/pdf/2312.067.... We studied a prominent member of a new class of pulsators to derive its evolutionary history . Corey will continue this study on a large sample at @uni-hamburg.de as PhD student.
