Nicholas is pioneering new approaches to performing Bayesian inference on kilonova spectra, with the goal of identifying absorption lines of specific heavy elements and probing the r-process abundance patterns.

MSc student at Bishop’s

Élodie is making the first comparison between the inferred r-process abundance pattern in the GW170817 kilonova to abundance patterns measured in metal-poor stars in the Milky Way halo.

MSc student at Bishop’s

Patrick is applying our new insights into the unique characteristics of massive black hole binary host galaxies to archival datasets, to predict which nearby galaxy will be the host to the first pulsar timing array detection.

Canadian Rubin Postdoctoral Fellow at Bishop’s

Weixiang is performing calculations to quantify the background of transient and variable sources that will contaminate telescope follow-up observations of gravitational wave events.

BSc student at Université Laval

Olivier is using new Chandra X-ray Observatory and Hubble Space Telescope imaging of a sample of faded ‘changing-look‘ quasars to understand the geometry of their accretion flows at extremely low luminosities.
