Congratulations to Professor Chryssa Kouveliotou who was awarded the 2021 Shaw Prize for her work on Magnetars! She is the Chair of the Physics Department at George Washington Uni and a retired NASA senior technologist. What a badass!🤩 #WomenInSTEM engrave-eso.org/Chryssa_Kouvel…
Today is the first time EVER that the Nobel committee has awarded a physics prize to a woman astronomer/astrophysicist, and only the fourth time in 117 years that a woman has won the general physics prize.
Those unequal mass ratio systems are so cool! A ~23 Solar mass black hole ate up a ~2.5 solar mass compact object (black hole or neutron star??? MYSTERY!!! 🤩) This other component is either the LIGHTEST BLACK HOLE EVER or the MOST MASSIVE NEUTRON STAR! iopscience.iop.org/article/10.384…
What's your favorite fact in our cool #GW190814 fact sheet, compiled by the @LIGO team at @psuLIGO dcc.ligo.org/public/0168/G2…
That is so cool 😍😍😍
Here is a great fact sheet made by the EGO ViRGO collaboration 😍

Oh snap! BETELGEUSE NEWS😱 Remember how a few months ago @emsque and @MassiveStarGuy told us that Betelegeuse dimmed because of dust? Well this team of astronomer thinks the atmosphere of the star is to blame 🤔! Thoughts?🤩 #Science #betelgeuse arxiv.org/abs/2006.09409
Today, Wednesday 10th of June, our collaboration will BE ON STRIKE and take the time to actively educate ourselves and follow the #Strike4BlackLives initiative! 🙏❤️ #BlackLivesMatter - We need to do more than just say it. Learn more here: particlesforjustice.org

I'm almost at 5000 follower. That's amazing! I hope that you all appreciate my mix of excitement over black holes and bad jokes. In honour of the milestone, when I hit 5000 I'll share my worst black hole joke. It sucks
For real that stuff always happens when I'm asleep - DAMN YOU TIME ZONES!! But this is so cool!!!! LIGHTEST BLACK HOLE EVER OR MOST MASSIVE NEUTRON STAR EVER!! 🤩 #Science!!!!
Those unequal mass ratio systems are so cool! A ~23 Solar mass black hole ate up a ~2.5 solar mass compact object (black hole or neutron star??? MYSTERY!!! 🤩) This other component is either the LIGHTEST BLACK HOLE EVER or the MOST MASSIVE NEUTRON STAR! iopscience.iop.org/article/10.384…
If the mystery object in #GW190814 *was* a #neutronstar, the lack of a counterpart in light could be down to its much greater distance than #GW170817 - making any light signal much fainter and harder to detect... ligo.org/detections/GW1…

I did something very wrong today by centering myself instead of BIPOC voices and blocking those who criticized that. I sincerely apologize and have corrected that. I will keep learning and doing better.
Just passed a guy in the hallway who asked me if I’m a grad student in the lab of one of my colleagues. So, how’s your afternoon going?

Can someone who is well-adjusted tell me what it's like to have good stuff happen in your life and not have your body fall appart with stress because you feel you don't deserve it and can't rise up to the occasion? Asking for a friend. The friend is me.
Fun fact: if you say "crewed" three times in front of a mirror, a certain Twitter account will pop up out of nowhere throwing a tantrum and accusing you of revisionism before blocking you. (I still don't have the honour of being blocked by them, one can only wish...).
