Scientists Say They May Have Just Detected a Wormhole From Another Universe Wormhole researchers suggest that LIGO and Virgo instead picked up the signals of a black hole collision in a different universe than ours.

Conocida como GW190521, esta inusual onda gravitacional podría no ser una colisión en nuestro universo, sino el eco de una ocurrida en otro universo, que llegó hasta nosotros a través de un agujero de gusano. #agujerodegusano #universos #gw190521

Unusual Gravitational Wave Could Indicate a Wormhole Connection

In 2019 LIGO‑Virgo recorded a sub‑0.1 s gravitational‑wave burst (GW190521) from a merger estimated at 142 solar masses, prompting a wormhole hypothesis. Read more: getnews.me/unusual-gravitational-wa... #gw190521 #wormhole #gravitationalwaves

Happy birthday #GW190521! Relive the science of one our biggest gravitational-wave discoveries, and don't feel guilty about having another piece of cake https://cplberry.com/2020/09/02/gw190521/

When we infer the properties of the black hole distribution, we see evidence for some of the heavier black holes, like #GW190521 and GW190519, being merger remnants! *But* this depends upon some important assumptions

We have so far announced #GW190412, #GW190425, #GW190521 and #GW190814 from #GWTC2. This leaves a lot more. Most look like binary black holes (my favourite), but GW190426 (a low significance candidate) could be a neutron star–black hole binary?

#GW190521—the BIG one https://cplberry.com/2020/09/02/gw190521-the-big-one/ @LIGO & @ego_virgo observe the formation of an intermediate-mass black hole and a black hole in the theorised pair-instability mass gap

An ode to #GW190521, 150 solar in gifs. You ready? 1/

… not all black holes will come from these clusters, and that will dilute the odds. Have we found a second-generation black hole? Maybe. It's exciting enough to keep us working to improve our calculations so that we can figure it out. Careful science takes time #GW190521

Applying our analysis to #GW190521, we find about even odds for a second-generation black hole if all binaries come from globular clusters, and better odds if they come from bigger clusters like nuclear star clusters. However…

Recently, @ChaseBKimball led work to find second-generation black holes by simultaneously inferring the mass and spin distribution of first-generation black holes. Using this, is #GW190521 a second-generation merger? https://twitter.com/cplberry/status/1257379372882890754

For a black hole to find a partner, it needs to be somewhere like a globular cluster with lots of other black holes around. However, when two black holes merge, they get a kick which can be enough to eject them from the cluster #GW190521

How else could you form an 85 solar mass black hole? One option is by merging two smaller ones. If second-generation black hole went on to form a new binary we could see it with gravitational waves. However, finding a new partner can be tricky #GW190521

#GW190521 is remarkable because the larger black hole in the binary has a mass of around 85 solar masses. This is not expected from our understanding of how stars collapse in supernovae. Could the black hole be formed in another way?

#GW190521 shows that intermediate-mass black holes do exist! We must keep searching for them to determine if there is one family of black holes or if there is a mixture of black holes forming in different ways

One of the big mysteries in astronomy (pun intended always) is where supermassive black holes come from? Do they grow from stellar-mass black holes, or do they have distinct origins. Observations (or lack thereof) of intermediate-mass black holes will help us understand #GW190521

#GW190521

#GW190521 is the most massive system observed by @LIGO & @ego_virgo so far. The merger remnant is around 142 solar masses, safely above the threshold to claim the title of an intermediate-mass black hole 🥇

Look how happy this numerical relativity simulation is! #GW190521
