Using Large-scale structures and gravitational wave sources to measure the expansion rate

Using Large-scale structures and gravitational wave sources to measure the expansion rate

by Abbé Whitford | Jul 17, 2025 | Daily Paper Summaries

In today’s astrobite we explore a new approach that has been developed to measure the Universal expansion rate, involving gravitational waves from merging black holes and the large-scale structure of the Universe.

A dark matter journey to the centre of the Earth

A dark matter journey to the centre of the Earth

by Abbé Whitford | Jun 15, 2025 | Daily Paper Summaries

In today’s paper, we take a journey to the Earth’s core, and learn how seismic data can help put constraints on the properties on dark matter particles.

Why is there more matter than antimatter? Gravitational waves may help us find the answer

Why is there more matter than antimatter? Gravitational waves may help us find the answer

by Abbé Whitford | May 5, 2025 | Daily Paper Summaries

In today’s astrobite, we talk about how gravitational waves could provide insight on particle physics, events in the early Universe, and even matter and antimatter asymmetry.

This bite gives a summary of the impacts of light pollution, across the globe and especially its impact on Indigenous cultures.

Is the sigma-8 tension being sheared away? Cosmology with weak lensing from KiDS

Is the sigma-8 tension being sheared away? Cosmology with weak lensing from KiDS

by Abbé Whitford | Apr 3, 2025 | Daily Paper Summaries

Today’s bite looks at the final data release from the Kilo-Degree Survey, reporting a measurement of the clumpiness of the Universe as measured by weak gravitational lensing.
