We're thrilled to have Maya Fishbach, @UofTArtSci Assistant Professor @CITA_ICAT, presenting at #AstronomyOnTapTO! ✨ Join us on March 1 to hear @mayaKfish explain how scientists are "listening" to black holes with gravitational waves ow.ly/1OMu50QGOlj

Thanks to @OntUniv for awarding me the John Charles Polanyi Prize in physics, and to @LGOntario, @JillDunlop1, the other prize winners, Nobel Laureates and everyone for putting together such a fun, inspiring ceremony! cita.utoronto.ca/cita-faculty-m…

Extremely honored to have been awarded a Sloan Fellowship this year. Huge thanks to all my @LIGO @ego_virgo KAGRA colleagues for detecting gravitational waves and making my research possible! Congratulations to all the winners!

Through pioneering research, Dr. @mayaKfish, is working to not only enhance our understanding of the universe's most extreme objects, but also to unravel their origins and contexts, with profound implications for cosmology. Learn more: ontariosuniversities.ca/university-imp…

Maya Fishbach & Daniel Litt from @UofTArtSci have been awarded prestigious 2024 Sloan Research Fellowships from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. #UofT 🏆 uoft.me/adV

Fun, fresh paper led by Reed Essick, asking whether GW sources are random on the sky. Although data is consistent with isotropy, we find an excess in the direction of constellation Equuleus. @GWastrology Note: title is pun intended. tinyurl.com/3huhhnmr @farrwill @mayaKfish

Black holes are beautifully simple—they can be described by just their mass and their spin. These reveal information about how the black holes formed But do measurements made using different observations tell a consistent story? A 🧵to catch up on recent papers

Check out our review of some of the coolest cosmological probes, including gravitational wave standard sirens 💫 🚨

And our review "Unveiling the Universe with emerging cosmological probes" it's finally been published! Very happy about it! 🚀🎉🍾

@thejunaverse @CITA_ICAT Thanks Juna!

Great summary from AAS Nova about my latest paper with @ChaseBKimball and Vicky Kalogera!

@mayaKfish @decohere @jmezquiagabravo @UChicago We have already established that most black holes are vanilla, and by virtue of the no-hair theorem do not come with toppings, but there is still much to discover

@decohere @jmezquiagabravo @UChicago That seems right. Although we might need a followup conference to discuss the ice cream—gravitational wave source mapping. Maybe @cplberry can organize 😊

@mayaKfish @jmezquiagabravo @UChicago I think spectral sirens should be strawberry.

Thanks @jmezquiagabravo and @decohere for the exciting gravitational wave cosmology workshop @UChicago last week! Standard sirens are the next best thing to ice cream (and come in just as many flavors, probably)

Do gravitational wave events come equally from every place in the sky? A thread about a recent (sort of) paper I was involved in with Reed Essick, @mayaKfish, @decohere, and Erik Katsavounidis. (Spoiler: yes, they do, so far as we can tell.). arxiv.org/abs/2207.05792

🆕 AAS Journal Author Series video! Maya Fishbach @mayaKfish (@NSULA) chats about her article on black holes: youtube.com/watch?v=pdNhnm… The goal of this series is to connect authors w/their article, their human story & the larger #astronomy community. #ExploreAstronomy #BlackHoles
