Thanks to everyone who attended #FlatironCCA's successful COSMIC Development Workshop this week! #science #astrophysics
Simons Foundation president David Spergel has been awarded an honorary degree from @thegraduatecenter.bsky.social for his extraordinary achievements in #astrophysics, visionary leadership, and lasting impact through research, mentorship, and commitment to the public good.
Researchers at the @flatironinstitute.org were skeptical about a quantum physics problem that was supposedly only solvable by quantum computers, so they set out to solve it on a classical computer. And thanks to mathematical structures called tensor networks, they did: https://bit.ly/4ahqZ3Y
Calling all fans of neuronal spikes at @manchester.ac.uk 🚨 Don't miss out on our first workshop on open-source tools for neural data analysis âš¡ðŸ§
Speakers: @ennyvb.bsky.social (UCL), @wulfdewolf.bsky.social & Chris Halcrow (University of Edinburgh)
Many thanks to @dns-uom.bsky.social for support!
Today, #FlatironCCA celebrated the work of the 2026 CUNY Masters Graduates in Astrophysics! #science #astrophysics
CCN Researcher SueYeon Chung Named McKnight Scholar on Simons Foundation
New data from the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration revealed two distinct types of black holes: small and slowly spinning ones vs. heavier ones that spin much faster: https://bit.ly/42XYmF1 #science #astrophysics
On the largest observable scales, the universe looks nearly the same in every direction. A new paper from Simons Foundation president David Spergel and colleagues proposes initial conditions for the beginning of our universe that could explain this cosmic puzzle: https://bit.ly/3PQmDtC #science
Concrete Cosmos, a Symbiosis short film created by @flatironinstitute.org researcher Adrian Bayer and filmmaker Adonis Williams, reveals surprising parallels between the structure of the deep universe and daily life on Earth. Watch full film: https://bit.ly/4fcdI08 #InfiniteSums #math #astrophysics
