** STEPHEN HAWKING WAS RIGHT **
Using a very strong black-hole merger signal, the @LIGO-@ego_virgo-@KAGRA_PR Collaboration has shown the 2nd law of black hole mechanics, Hawking's area law (A_final > A_initial), to hold with high credibility.

Results from the first part of our fourth LIGO @ego_virgo @KAGRA_PR observing run are out today!
We're pleased to share the largest catalog of gravitational-wave observations with more discoveries of black holes and neutron stars

#O4IsHere #GWTC4

ALT New masses in the stellar graveyard plot, showing astronomical observations of black holes and neutron stars. The number of gravitational-wave observations of black holes is overwhelming. The plot is arranged to look nice, the horizontal axis has no meaning, but the vertical one shows masses. We have a significant range of masses from about 1 solar mass to over 200 solar masses for our largest merger remnant. New out today is a neutron star black hole binary GW230518_125908, as well as a lot of binary black holes.

Exciting #GravitationalWave candidate from yesterday #S250114ax
If real, the source is probably a binary black hole

Je finis avec une pensée de mon cher Hubert Reeves "L'homme mène un combat contre la nature, s'il le gagne, il est perdu". Menons donc un combat pour les faits... et ailleurs. Ce compte fermera le 20 janvier. Merci tout le monde

It’s several folks from @ObsCoteAzur at the GdR for #GravitationalWaves talking about some of the cool science being done at @lab_artemis and in the LVK!
It was great to mingle and chat science with the GW community in France 🇫🇷
@ego_virgo @LIGO @KAGRA_PR
Congratulations to @OMinazzoli who succesfully defended his Habilitation last week at the @ObsCoteAzur
