The paper is now also out on arxiv 🥳 Huge thank you to all the collaborators who worked on this paper with me, especially @jbodenst3 🤗https://t.co/CqYgFcE62Z
Vor zwei Jahren meldeten Astronomen @ESO die Entdeckung des bislang erdnächsten Schwarzen Lochs. Nun stellte sich heraus, dass es sich bei dem System #HR6819 stattdessen um einen ungewöhnlichen Doppelstern handelt. @jbodenst3#Stern#Astronomie https://t.co/LNMgP0Iq79
📢 Press release! 📢 Super excited to have led the letter that's the subject of this result, published today in @AandA_journal. A source that was once thought have black hole now shown to be a cool, post-interaction binary system!
"The case of the missing black hole" In 2020 @ESO astronomers reported the closest black hole to Earth. The plot thickened when astronomer-detectives @jbodenst3 & @AstroDrFrost showed that there is no black hole at all. Discover how they solved the mystery https://t.co/KJRJ3o1IZy
In 2020 a team led by @ESO astronomers reported the closest black hole to Earth, located just 1000 light-years away in the HR 6819 system. Now, the system was found to contain no black hole.

Don't miss #ESOcast 252 — “Closest Black Hole or no Black Hole at all…?”
A fascinating story about a science battle settled by more science and collaboration. Watch this to find out how the “closest black hole” system was found to contain no black hole https://t.co/HjBvata2tU
