Exciting news released from the @LIGO Collaboration! Congratulations to our @CITA_ICAT - LIGO Group comprised of faculty Reed Essick and Maya Fishbach (@mayaKfish), postdoc Aditya Vijaykumar (@alsogoesbyV), and graduate students Utkarsh Mali and Aryanna Schiebelbein.

Award-winning documentary by @LesGuthman on the first @LIGO detections, referencing @CITA_ICAT Prof. Reed Essick (@thisaintessic), who was among the first in the world to hear about them: .

Isabelle Connor (@itsizzyconnor) olympic rhythmic gymnast and astrophysics student from @ucsc is visiting the @CITA_ICAT to investigate supernova driven turbulence together with CITA/Princeton University turbulence expert Dr. James Beattie (@astro_magnetism) Beattie.

Ioana Zelko, @CITA_ICAT postdoc and @BartRipperda, faculty member, won 32K A100 GPU-Hours for creating the first framework for Real-Time Calculation of 3D Interstellar Radiation Fields. @nvidia is donating the GPU hours to CITA.

Today CITAzens visited the vault of the @UofT Art Museum and saw rarely displayed Canadian heritage artworks. Thank you Nathan Carlson for organizing this special visit and Alex King (Collections Coordinator) for letting us in this coveted art treasury!
