The trio is back!.
We're now half-way through our 2 week engineering run. On 3 April, we should start the second part of our fourth observing run (O4b). We have enjoyed a few stretches with @LIGOWA @LIGOLA and @ego_virgo observing together! Here's a plot of performance on Saturday

I made this! Visualising what a ring of free-falling particles would look like when different polarizations modes of gravitational waves passes through them. Still learning how to make more complex vector graphics, if u have any tips please send them my way!

Mathematical modeling is everywhere! It is our job as educators to encourage the pursuance of mathematics, to create a math-literate society who can come together to evaluate, understand, and solve big problems! An empowering talk by @eafulton
