Source Needed: Could Signal Confusion Hurt Next-Gen Gravitational Wave Detectors?
Today’s paper takes a prospective look at possible concerns for future gravitational wave observations, and finds that perhaps no concern is needed.

Simulations of Turbulence in Black Hole Coronae
In today’s bite, the authors use simulations to explore turbulence a possible mechanism for the observed x-ray emissions in the coronae of black holes.
Attacking the (Multi-)Messenger: Simulating a Kilonova
Neutron stars (NSs) are the most extreme objects known, composed of a form of matter so extraordinarily dense that it teeters on the brink of collapse into a black hole.
