Spinning into the merging binary black hole family tree
Do black holes have a family tree? Read more in today’s bite!
Don’t Like Your Neutrino Flavor? Transform It!
Neutron stars are some of the densest, most exotic objects in the universe. Today’s paper explores how simulating novel neutrino physics affects the outcome of neutron star mergers.
Using Large-scale structures and gravitational wave sources to measure the expansion rate
In today’s astrobite we explore a new approach that has been developed to measure the Universal expansion rate, involving gravitational waves from merging black holes and the large-scale structure of the Universe.
Following up on flares: Can we spot black hole mergers in AGN disks?
In today’s Astrobite, we revisit the possibility of binary black hole mergers in AGN disks creating flares, which could have interesting implications for multimessenger astronomy and cosmology.
Keep your ν-eyes open: Messengers from a Common Envelope
Today’s bite explores how neutrinos might inform us about a neutron star being engulfed by another star!
Uncovering Precession for GW190521: How the Last Cycle Cracked the Case
Hidden in the final moments of the gravitational wave signal, a tiny detail holds powerful clues about how these massive black holes spiraled into each other and merged.
