#RIT researchers have published new research identifying a “smoking gun” for merging supermassive #blackholes. Their 3D simulations show a sharp jump in light and jet power at the moment of merger, caused by shocks, making these events easier to spot. A crucial step for #multimessengerastronomy.

4/10 Today, #MultimessengerAstronomy allows us to see across the entire electromagnetic spectrum. We use everything from X-rays to the infrared light of the James Webb Space Telescope to get complementary views of cosmic objects.

We can't say for certain that Case A mass transfer explains the spins, but we see that differences in evolution do occur

I really love how different observations pick up different branches of the stellar evolutionary tree

1 year ago @CarnegieAstro discovered the optical counterpart to #GW170817 by targetting galaxies to observe. In https://arxiv.org/abs/1801.08009 we investigated the localization potential of @LIGO–@ego_virgo and the implications for #MultimessengerAstronomy. Blog:...
