We're now almost 25 weeks into O4, the joint observing run of the gravitational-wave detectors – time to take another look at the “harvest” so far 6️⃣3️⃣ significant signal candidates (possible new gravitational-wave events) A new signal candidate every 2️⃣ to 3️⃣ days 1/

Today @EinsteinAtHome joins @the_zooniverse: Citizen scientists can now also use their eyes and brains to help find new #pulsars. ℹ️ https://t.co/R9Eml7KLmW Volunteers classify graphical representations of Einstein@Home results ⬇️ to discover more pulsars in #Arecibo data.

If you haven't heard, GPU work is ending at @MilkyWayatHome . The project will continue but will be CPU only. We are recommending moving to @EinsteinAtHome if you want to keep crunching GPU work for similar research. https://t.co/Gqgb9Vtp7P #boincusa

Who doesn't love gamma-ray pulsars?! We sure do! And now a whole bunch of them was found which are eclipsed by their stellar partners. Check it out 👇 -B

Pulsars don’t have to be in binaries to make #GravitationalWaves - they can produce continuous waves too. The @EinsteinAtHome @mpi_grav team explained how home computers are helping the search for these signals (p. 18)
