Saturday Morning Physics | Gravitational Waves with LIGO: Beyond the Big Chirp

Ansel Neunzert, Ph.D. Candidate (U-M Physics Gravitational Wave Group)

Collecting a zoo of black holes. Hunting for elusive signals from spinning neutron stars. Grappling with terabytes of data. On occasion, imitating thirsty ravens. These are just a few of the things that LIGO scientists are busy with, as the field of gravitational wave physics takes off from its historic first detection. This talk will provide a view of LIGO from the ground: key concepts, recent results, a taste of challenges large and small, and a particular focus on the work done here at University of Michigan.
