My first first-author paper is published in the new edition of @ScienceMagazine. I am thrilled beyond words and let me share my thoughts and a brief summary of the paper in the thread. The star of the day is a Fast Radio Burst, FRB20190520B. 1/13 #ScienceResearch #womeninscience

Honored to be a part of this group! And grateful for my collaborators and PhD supervisors :)

Using a large cosmological sample of fast radio bursts, Connor et al. have measured the Universe’s missing baryons, finding that most reside in the diffuse intergalactic medium, not galaxies — confirming strong astrophysical feedback seen in simulations. bit.ly/4kLSar5

Application for the ASPIRE summer research program at the University of Amsterdam is open. Masters students, interested in astronomy research, come work with us on FRBs and LPTs! aspire.science.uva.nl

Very excited for this!

Our paper on Crab giant pulse rates is now published in ApJ! iopscience.iop.org/article/10.384…

Oooo interesting paper!

Big day today! Our @Nature paper on Fast Radio Bursts is finally out! nature.com/articles/s4158…

WVU fast radio burst researcher says astronomy is for everyone dlvr.it/TBVd82

WVU wrote an article about my research. Here is it! :) Also thanks to @wvutoday

Haha! My favorite of these memes so far!!

@Judhajeet1 @isro Congratulations!

Publication Alert! Unveiling the UV secrets of novae in M31! 🔭 Our new study using @isro's AstroSat UVIT data reveals 42 novae, shedding light on their behavior in quiescence & outburst. #novae #M31 #astronomy #AstroSat #UV #science

112 years ago today, Franz Kafka captured the academic experience

@Vic_ccc Congratulations, Vic!!

I PASSED MY PHD CANDIDACY EXAM AND WAS AWARDED 66 HOURS OF GBT TIME TODAY!!!!!!! 🍾🥂🎉🎊🎈ONWARD AND UPWARD :)

Check out this new paper on compact radio sources which might be possible FRB-persistent radio sources!!

Using the Murriyang and Lovell telescopes, astronomers discovered the radio pulses from a rare, radio-loud magnetar displayed a mysterious conversion in their polarization state that are linked to changes in its magnetic field geometry. @astromelow et al.: nature.com/articles/s4155…

Looking for more science on magnetic fields and polarised light after @ehtelescope's image of a black hole's magnetic fields last week? Catch up on some of ours: csiro.au/en/news/All/Ne…

Breaking news: the Event Horizon Telescope team unveils strong magnetic fields spiraling at the edge of Milky Way’s central black hole, Sagittarius A*. This new image suggests that strong magnetic fields may be common to all black holes. #OurBlackHole #SgrABlackHole

If you have not yet seen it, we are returning to Socorro for in-person @TheNRAO Synthesis Imaging Summer School! (after detour to Charlottesville in 2023 and virtual covid times). Registration is now open! Send your postdocs, students, anyone can join: go.nrao.edu/siw

Another repeater :) ATel #16468: ASKAP detection of a repeating fast radio burst source astronomerstelegram.org/?read=16468

@astroHDE Big congrats!!! 🎉🎊

First first-author paper submitted. . . . This feels weird.
