@daniel_williams Oh no! I have family there, better check they are ok!😂

Our first event of the season! #S230529ay is a tentative NSBH candidate with a false alarm rate of 1 per 160 yrs gracedb.ligo.org/superevents/S2… Only @LIGOLA was online, so the sky localisation is poor. Our colleagues are hard at work to bring you the full detector network! 👷‍♂️👷‍♀️

The universe listened to my plea - and gave us an NSBH! Online PE finished in about half an hour and we got the skymap out promptly after that. Sorry for the 25000 deg^2 sky localization 😅 gcn.nasa.gov/circulars/33891

New #GravitationalWave alert while I was out for a stroll #S230529ay If real, it would be an NSBH and promising for a counterpart, but as only @LIGOLA was observing, we can't localise the source False alarm rate: 1 per 160 yr GraceDB: gracedb.ligo.org/superevents/S2… Rating: 🐧🍨

Today the @LIGO-Virgo-@KAGRA_PR (LVK) Collaboration begins a new observing run with upgraded instruments, new and even more accurate signal models, and more advanced data analysis methods. LIGO will resume operations today, while Virgo will join later in the year.

Hey, a cool article about 4th observing run which has just started (as of 20 minutes ago)! Including a quote from yours truly 😉

I still don’t understand why this gripping book hasn’t been adapted into a prestige TV drama.

Albert the thesis Alpaca travels home to Larbert for the first time as I have handed in my thesis corrections.

No recriminations. Solidarity, strength, strategy and resolve. We'll find a way through it, however hard it might be and however long it takes, and we will make this the beautiful country it ought to be. And in the meantime we will fucking well look after each other.

We have each other. No one needs to face this setback alone. We are the resistance now.
