Can we perform a Supernova Autopsy Via Gravitational Waves?
In this Astrobite, the authors try to solve the mystery of what happens to the corpse of a supernova post-explosion: black hole or neutron star?
Remember me? The impact of Gravitational Wave “Memory” on the Cosmic Microwave Background
In this Astrobite, we see if a phenomenon called gravitational wave memory can leave a noticeable imprint on the CMB!
Could a heart of darkness power pair-instability supernovae?
Pair-Instability Supernovae could be the fate of some of the universe’s most massive stars. Today’s Astrobite explores if dark matter accumulated in the cores of these stars could help drive these gargantuan explosions!
Delving Deep on Dynamical Dark Energy: Can we find signs of a different cosmology with the Integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect?
In this Astrobite, we see if it is possible to spot the fingerprints of dark energy that changes strength!
Could Merging Black Holes Wakeboard on Dark Matter?
In this Astrobite, the authors study the effects of dark matter on merging black hole binaries. As the black holes move through dark matter, they form wakes that slow them down, could this affect the gravitational waves released?
