"Black Sun: On 29 May 1919, the new moon covered the blazingly bright disk of the Sun. The astronomers back then were already able to quite impressively photograph the shadow dance. This historical photo clearly shows the corona, the outer gas atmosphere of the Sun." Image: Inverted image of the eclipse on May 29, 1919. Credit: F. W. Dyson, A. S. Eddington, and C. Davidson/Public domain
The photo shows Sir Arthur Eddington (right) and Einstein sitting on a bench, engaged in a friendly discussion. The photo of the two scientists was taken in 1930 at the University of Cambridge in Great Britain. © AKG

Hi I am Physgal and I will be adding physicists to the Science feed. Please respond below with evidence that you are a physicist to be added to the feed.

A recent paper led by collaboration members Yoonsoo Kim and Elias Most (both at Caltech) is in @aasnova.org today! This work explores the formation of strongly magnetized "monster" shocks and a transient "black hole pulsar" state from mergers of a magnetized neutron star and a black hole.

Our community flourished because of 3 NSF grants we earned 10 years ago.
We were awarded another one to grow the community and move us to sustainability without federal support.
Each day that passes brings worry that we won't be able to do so.

Terrible news for our colleagues and friends at @phetsims.bsky.social
Please support them if you can.
They are an incredible resource for the #physics and #iteachphysics community.

@phetsims.bsky.social singlehandedly got #ITeachPhysics through emergency remote instruction in 2020.
