Great article about the importance of software engineering and open source code in astrophysics 🔭🧪 (and if anyone is keen to work with me on #BlackHoles lmk, I am planning to hire a software engineer soon!) 😊

One more paper from the group out arxiv.org/abs/2508.00062 🎉 Led by Lieke Sippens Groenewegen, who finished her MSc in my group @grappainstitute.bsky.social in February, and with @sanjanacurtis.bsky.social we developed an end-to-end pipeline for kilonova lightcurves and spectra #highenergyastro 🔭🧪

Fun visit to the @einsteintelescope.bsky.social pathfinder at @maastrichtu.bsky.social yesterday with my research group. Really cool developments in the making, thanks very much for the great tour! #highenergyastro

And one more paper just out today 🎉 The first 3D GRMHD simulation of black-hole formation in massive stellar core collapse in arxiv.org/abs/2506.20837. #highenergyastro 🔭🧪
A Black Hole is Born: 3D GRMHD Simulation of Black Hole Formation from Core-Collapse
We present the first three-dimensional, fully general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (3D GRMHD) simulation of a black hole (BH) formed from the collapsed core of a massive star. The ability to self-...

To kick off here on bluesky I wanted to share some recent work from the group. First off arxiv.org/abs/2504.11537, the first science paper produced with our new GPU-accelerated GRMHD code GRaM-X.
3D full-GR simulations of magnetorotational core-collapse supernovae on GPUs: A systematic study of rotation rates and magnetic fields
We present a series of fully three-dimensional, dynamical-spacetime general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (GRMHD) simulations of core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) for a progenitor of zero-age-main-...
