Amazing week at the 73rd Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings @lindaunobel, thanks for the opportunity to co-host the opening ceremony, for the most wonderful experience and the amazing global network. Thanks, @cardiffuni and @royalsociety for the selection!

Last week at @KCL_Physics for the Higgs Lecture by Dame Jocelyn Bell and the associated workshop "New Physics with Neutron Stars". Over the moon to meet and speak in front of one of my childhood science superstars!

We're over the moon to win University of the Year, with our very own @sarawebbscience winning Rising Star of the Year – Enterprise at the 2024 Australian Space Awards⭐ Our talented academics were finalists in six categories this year!
#AusSpace24 #AustralianSpaceAwards
Will be joining @NUCIERA towards the end of this year, continuing my venture on black holes and neutron stars. @chicago looking forward to you!

Join to learn about pulsars from Jocelyn Bell herself..
Yours truly is honoured to be one of the invited speakers for the next-day associated workshop.
We are thrilled that this year's speaker for the Higgs Lecture is none other than Professor Jocelyn Bell Burnell!🌟

The universe likes to wait until I’m on the PE ROTA to give us potentially EM-bright sources! Check out these classifications and the updated skymap I just sent out: gcn.nasa.gov/circulars/36240
🚨 An exciting one! #GravitationalWave candidate #S240422ed
If real, the source is probably a neutron star–black hole (could have an electromagnetic counterpart)

So inspiring to hear from @c_debatri about the @HomewardBound16 project. The biggest all-female group ever to go to Antarctica whilst learning about leadership to tackle climate change @diversity_cu #EarthDay2024
1st April astro-ph entry "Multi-messenger astrology" : arxiv.org/pdf/2403.19749.pdf "Unlike our condensed matter colleagues - who regularly use quantum mechanics to determine the healing properties of crystals - astrology techniques have been unchanged since the 19th century." 😆

The 1973 Nobel Peace Prize is the only Nobel Peace Prize ever to have been declined. Le Duc Tho, a Vietnamese politician who was offered it alongside Henry Kissinger, refused it because he said ‘peace has not yet been established’.
Honoured to be selected as one of the Young Scientists for the upcoming 73rd Lindau Nobel Laureate meeting. Grateful to the UK science community
@cardiffuni @royalsociety, as well as Australia @ARC_OzGRav and India @LIGOIndia, with my cross-continental academic heritage.

⭐🦕 Can you find fossils to analyse in space?
You can. Globular clusters such as NGC 1841 ✨ in our ESA/Hubble Picture of the Week contain many very old stars, making them akin to celestial ‘fossils’.
ALT A cluster of stars. Most of the stars are very small and uniform in size, and they are notably bluish and cluster more densely together towards the centre of the image. Some appear larger in the foreground. The stars give way to a dark background at the corners.
Voicing my journey for the younger women, who are still being asked to play from the backstage, shine - but not outshine, to be smart - but not outsmart. Do not limit yourselves.
Happy International Day of Women & Girls in Science. @LIGOIndia @astrobel_rs @HomewardBound16
On the #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience, we celebrate achievements of inspiring female role models. This year we feature Debatri Chattopadhyay @c_debatri & Isobel-Romero Shaw @astrobel_rs
Amplify the voices of 10 women in STEM and keep it going! @astrobel_rs @astronomash @ManjariBagchi @virgidemilio @chellebalez @alikjones @scidocmartin @KoPenny_ @FloorAstro @astro_roamer

Brown dwarf W1935 posed a mystery.
Webb found that methane in this object’s atmosphere was emitting infrared light, despite no obvious energy source. Using clues from our solar system, scientists found a possible explanation in aurorae:

ALT An artist concept portrays a round, gaseous object on a black, star-filled background. The object, a brown dwarf, occupies the right half of the image. It is various shades of dark blue and is streaked with undulating horizontal bands that encircle it, much like the planet Jupiter in our solar system. It is tilted to the right and toward the viewer so that one pole is completely visible. The pole is circled by a curtain of red representing an aurora.

The @Bloomberg Top 10 Breakthroughs includes Pulsar Timing Array efforts to find the gravitational wave background, and an ancient supermassive black hole, UHZ1, which may have formed via direct collapse.
