from What Do You Do? with Rodolfo Cooper · host Rodolfo Cooper

Listen to Deirdre Shoemaker, Ph,D. discuss her experiences being a physicist and professor, her love of black holes, her recent discoveries and more. Deirdre and a team of international scientists recently released an updated catalog of gravitational wave detections, more than tripling the number of confirmed events. The catalog includes the heaviest black hole binary system detected so far, the second detection of a binary neutron star merger, two black holes with different masses and the merger of a black hole with a curious object (either the lightest black hole or the heaviest neutron star detected so far). https://cns.utexas.edu/news/a-cornucopia-of-newly-confirmed-gravitational-wave-detections
