24 Jan 2022 — With the most recent gravitational wave transient catalog GWTC-3, the LIGO/Virgo detectors have detected about 90 compact binary mergers, including binary black holes, binary neutron stars, and neutron star–black hole pairs. Among the 90 events, 35 compact binary mergers from the second half of the third observing run(O3b) were reported for the first time. On Thursday 27 January 2022, at 9AM US Eastern time (1400 UTC), the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration will host a webinar discussing results from a recent paper where we combined the new observational data with older data to look for possible departures from GR.

See this pdf flyer on the webinar.

A recording will be made available on our YouTube channel.
