Decoding Magnetic Galactic Binaries with LISA
Today’s bite demonstrates that decoding the gravitational wave signals from magnetic binary stars offers unprecedented insights into the behavior of magnetic fields in these extreme environments.
A home has secrets too…
We don’t talk about accretion disks enough, but they hide so much physics in them! The authors of today’s paper try to understand which physical effect wins in circumbinary disks!

In the latest of our #UndergradResearch series, check out Pranav Satheesh’s research on the polarisation of gravitational waves!
Separated At Birth: Comparing Chemical Compositions of Binaries
Today’s authors check whether twin stars in binaries are identical or fraternal, chemically.
Can a planet change the measured age of its parent star?
If you know a star’s rotation, you can find its age. Today’s authors look at stars for which this isn’t the case.
