NASTY URCHIN. “Tropaeolum, commonly known as nasturtium, literally "nose-twister" or "nose-tweaker"), is a genus of roughly 80 species of annual and perennial herbaceous flowering plants.”https://lnkd.in/dueWQZJ View in LinkedIn

LIFE WILL FIND A WAY. “Life near sunlike stars most likely began over the most recent few billion years in cosmic history. In the future, however, it might continue to emerge on planets orbiting dwarf stars, like our nearest neighbor, Proxima Centauri, which will endure hundreds of times longer than the sun’s.” (Professor Avi Loeb, former Chair of Astronomy, Harvard). https://lnkd.in/dqeyJNq View in LinkedIn

FOSSILIZED IMPACT DEBRIS. “Two gigantic blobs of dense rock hundreds of miles tall sit deep inside Earth. New research suggests these blobs are remnants of a planet that hit Earth 4.5 billion years ago. The collision of Earth and this ancient planet, called Theia, may have helped create the moon. Those pieces are millions of times larger than Mount Everest in terms of volume.” https://lnkd.in/d-Hsyqs View in LinkedIn

CHAOS AND ORDER. “The Geometry of Complexity. We now come to the main subject of this paper: the implications of complexity geometry for the evolution of chaotic systems over exponential and doubly exponential times.” https://lnkd.in/d3Fw6gf View in LinkedIn

ACCESSING THE INTERIOR. “Moreover, during the last few years we have gathered evidence that quantum mechanics allows some access to a black hole’s interior. Ignoring the spacetime behind the horizon is not an option and we have to understand how it emerges holographically.” https://lnkd.in/d3Fw6gf View in LinkedIn

MILLIONS OF BLACK HOLES. “We predict the black hole count as a function of galaxy stellar mass. We show, for example, that a galaxy like the Milky Way should host millions of ∼30 M⊙ black holes and dwarf satellite galaxies like Draco should host ∼100 such remnants.” https://lnkd.in/d8Jh7TB View in LinkedIn

COUNTING BLACK HOLES. “The cosmic stellar remnant population. We present an empirical approach for interpreting gravitational wave signals of binary black hole mergers under the assumption that the underlying black hole population is sourced by remnants of stellar evolution.” https://lnkd.in/d8Jh7TB View in LinkedIn

DARK MATTER CANDIDATE. “A non-baryonic form of matter, known as dark matter (DM), forms a dominant component of our Universe. Experimental searches have been trying to search for DM particles but no conclusive evidence has shown up yet. Primordial black holes (PBHs) are an alternate well-motivated DM candidate that can constitute all of the DM density.” https://lnkd.in/djrDvvz View in LinkedIn

THE MAGICIAN’S BAG. “We show that the volume and its associated entropy for a collapsed black hole diverges if the final evaporation stage is treated using noncommutative space. This implicates the interior of a black hole possesses adequate space to store information for a black hole of any mass, like the inside of a 'magician's bag'.” https://lnkd.in/d_KWd79 View in LinkedIn
