Black Hole, Why Don’t You Come Over? White Dwarf Supernova!

Black Hole, Why Don’t You Come Over? White Dwarf Supernova!

by Lucas Brown | May 31, 2024 | Daily Paper Summaries, PRJ

The origin of dim supernovae known as Ca-rich transients is still not well-understood. Could it be that these rare events are set off by an encounter between a white dwarf and a primordial black hole?

Don’t disturb the baby! A black hole discovered to be born quietly

Don’t disturb the baby! A black hole discovered to be born quietly

by Storm Colloms | May 25, 2024 | Daily Paper Summaries, PRJ

This black hole could have been born without any bright supernova explosion, emitting nothing but a few neutrinos in its formation. Find out how we can tell in today’s paper!

Freshly Baked Dark Matter Search Results from BREAD

by Cesiley King | May 18, 2024 | Daily Paper Summaries, PRJ

Check out the fresh BREAD results! Researchers show that the innovative design of the Broadband Experiment for Axion Detection could pave a promising path forward in the search for dark matter.

How do Merger Environments Affect Gravitational Waves?

How do Merger Environments Affect Gravitational Waves?

by Erica Sawczynec | May 11, 2024 | Daily Paper Summaries, PRJ

Is it possible to detect the environments around compact binary mergers observed with LIGO-Virgo? The authors of today’s paper explore!

Trying to Crack the Cold Case of Core Collapse Neutrinos

Trying to Crack the Cold Case of Core Collapse Neutrinos

by Ivey Davis | May 4, 2024 | Daily Paper Summaries, PRJ

The first (and last) time we observed neutrinos from a supernova was 40 years ago. Are we ready to understand what the next supernova neutrino will tell us?

Source Needed: Could Signal Confusion Hurt Next-Gen Gravitational Wave Detectors?

Source Needed: Could Signal Confusion Hurt Next-Gen Gravitational Wave Detectors?

by Catherine Slaughter | Apr 20, 2024 | Daily Paper Summaries, PRJ

Today’s paper takes a prospective look at possible concerns for future gravitational wave observations, and finds that perhaps no concern is needed.
