In our latest Research Highlight 💡 Matthias Koschnitzke describes how a new fundamental, ultralight #particle could leave an imprint in the distribution of orbital eccentricities of #BlackHoles orbiting each other, potentially observable with future #GravitationalWave observatories.

🔊💃 Mit Taylor, Justin und den Scorpions Gravitationswellen erforschen: Das „WAVE“-Forschungsteam konnte die Schwingungen des Taylor-Swift-Konzerts im gesamten Tunnel des Röntgenlasers European XFEL sowie im Glasfaser-Netz der Science City Hamburg Bahrenfeld messen. Nun bereitet es sich auf die Konzerte von Justin Timberlake und den Scorpions vor. Die Messungen werden erneut per Livestream übertragen. 📹 Die Aufzeichnungen zeigen zum einen, wie dynamisch der Untergrund ist. Zum anderen helfen sie dabei, das Messnetzwerk zu verfeinern. Langfristig können Änderungen der Temperatur und Bodenfeuchte ermittelt werden, sodass Aussagen über den Einfluss des Klimawandels auf die Stadt möglich sind. 🌡️

Today the #particlephysics #teilchenphysik is celebrating #germany🇩🇪 contributions to #CERN for 70 years #cern70 and Christian Schwanenberger and I are there! Cluster of Excellence Quantum Universe

Happy 70th birthday CERN. It is always exciting to be a part of the groundbreaking research happening at the LHC in Geneva. At DESY we are very proud that the current physics coordinators for both ATLAS and CMS are DESY colleagues, Andreas B. Meyer and Kerstin Tackmann. The birthday celebrations kicked of on Sunday. September 1st with staging the opera Creazione/ Schöpfung Fragmente by composer and singer Gloria Bruni, followed by an evening of CERN stories with personal glances into some of CERN's work - previous and current and above all about the unique science cooperation. Tune in on September 3rd starting at 7:00 pm to the CERN 70 event: https://lnkd.in/ehv3Bnie

Feel the Beat of #Deichkind tonight: Live Seismic Vibes from Deichkind concert on #Trabrennbahn #Hamburg! We’re excited to bring you live measurements of the seismic energy from the Deichkind concert happening at Trabrennbahn Hamburg! Using our WAVE seismic measurement network at the Bahrenfeld campus at DESY, just some 100 meters away, we’re capturing how the ground moves with the music and the energy of the crowd! Our state-of-the-art WAVE fiber optic (DAS) sensor network is incredibly sensitive, allowing us to detect even the smallest vibrations underground, almost like we’re listening with a thousand ears beneath the city. Tonight, Deichkind's electrifying performances will have thousands of fans dancing and jumping, and we’re ready to capture every beat! Join us tonight from 20:00 for a livestream of our vibration measurements, showcasing the real-time “Deichquakes” in action!  In the past, we’ve successfully picked up vibrations from major concerts. The collective energy of the crowd will cause the ground to “swing along” slightly. Don’t worry about any “Deichquakes”—these are just tiny, harmless vibrations, too small to feel but perfectly detectable with our sensitive equipment. Think of it like the subtle shake you feel when a big truck drives by, but caused by fans having a great time! On our livestream (https://lnkd.in/ePjD4r7W), you’ll see two types of nearly real-time visualizations: - A ring of ‘rainbow blobs’ showing the strength and direction of the vibrations, filtered for different frequency bands. - A classic ‘waterfall plot’ that displays vibration intensity over time and distance along our fiber network. These visualizations give us a fascinating real-time look at how Hamburg responds to the music and energy of a live Deichkind concert! For more details on what you’re seeing on the livestream, upcoming livestreams including football games and general information about the WAVE project, visit our website https://wave-hamburg.eu/! A huge thank you to our amazing WAVE team for making this possible: Celine Hadziioannou, Oliver Gerberding, Holger Schlarb (co-coordinators); Markus Hoffmann, Erik Genthe, Wanda Vossius, Spiridon Beis, Vincent Wodtke, Laura Bogner, Reinhardt Rading, Norbert Meyners, Conny Hammer, Alexander Bauer, Virgil Guggenberger and everyone else on the WAVE crew! We also appreciate the support from Universität Hamburg, Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron DESY, Helmut-Schmidt-Universität/Universität der Bundeswehr Hamburg, European XFEL, and Helmholtz-Zentrum Potsdam - Deutsches GeoForschungsZentrum GFZ. #DAS #ScienceOutreach #SciComm #ScienceCityHamburg #Deichkind  #Deichquakes
