Reanalyzing LIGO-Virgo gravitational wave events under the new lens of… lensing!
Gravitational lensing can bend gravitational waves too! Do any of the recent LIGO-Virgo detections show evidence of lensing? Find out…
UR: Designing a Smaller and More Sensitive Gravitational Wave Detector
In today’s #UndergradResearch post, find out how superluminal lasers could soon make gravitational wave detectors tiny fractions of their current size.
UR: Measuring the Hubble Constant With Dynamical Tides In Inspiraling Neutron Star Binaries
In this #UndergradResearch post, James Sunseri explores the possibility of using gravitational waves from colliding neutron stars to measure the Hubble Constant without observing the electromagnetic spectrum.
UR: Finding the Chirp
Today’s #UndergradResearch post features Shashwat Singh’s work using deep learning as an asset for gravitational wave astronomy!
A Long Drive to Outer Space? Put Gravitational Waves on the Radio!
Space probes to the outer solar system take more than a decade to get there. But that doesn’t mean we have to sit and wait – we can use them to try and detect gravitational waves!
Constraining a cacophony of coalescences
Earth based gravitational wave detectors combine their data to search for a discordant hum from distant gravitational wave sources.
