Check out this awesome paper led by Ariadna Murguia at @ucsc, where we study the dead of massive stars disappearing without producing a luminous transient.

** STEPHEN HAWKING WAS RIGHT **
Using a very strong black-hole merger signal, the @LIGO-@ego_virgo-@KAGRA_PR Collaboration has shown the 2nd law of black hole mechanics, Hawking's area law (A_final > A_initial), to hold with high credibility.

We can precisely test general relativity with this loud signal. Most tests show agreement with Einstein's theory, but some…
The deviations can be explained by detector noise. Having multiple detectors is important!

The latest catalog of gravitational-wave observations from the @LIGO-@ego_virgo-@KAGRA_PR collaborations has been published! 🎉Results from the searches present many more discoveries of black holes and neutron stars, advancing our knowledge in multi-disciplinary domains
Results from the first part of our fourth LIGO @ego_virgo@KAGRA_PR observing run are out today!
We're pleased to share the largest catalog of gravitational-wave observations with more discoveries of black holes and neutron stars

I’m a psychiatrist.
In 2025, I’ve seen 12 people hospitalized after losing touch with reality because of AI. Online, I’m seeing the same pattern.
Here’s what “AI psychosis” looks like, and why it’s spreading fast: 🧵
