Mind Your Metals (especially when modeling the collapse of super massive stars into black holes)
Today we’re talking about metals meddling in collapsing super massive star models!
Equitable access in an increasingly computational world
As physics/astronomy become increasingly computational, training and infrastructure have struggled to keep pace. In today’s bite we discuss these issues and a new company, Camber, working to streamline research and democratize high performance computing!
Old molecule, new tricks: The chemistry of climate change
How exactly does the CO2 molecule cause the Earth to warm? Today’s authors explain with a physically motivated model molecule.
Snow White and the seven(teen) dwarves search for dark matter
Today’s authors use the VERITAS telescope to hunt for dark matter in the Milky Way’s satellite galaixes!
You (Might) Spin Me Right Round (The Cluster Center)
Today’s authors spin up simulations that could explain the unique radio structure in NGC 6166.
Double the scattering, double the fun!
In today’s bite, we discuss whether scattering from the X-ray corona impacts measurements of black hole spin!
