LIGO-Virgo Conference

    This past week, I attended a physics conference hosted by the University of Maryland. Aside from the travel to the conference, which of course was made all the more lovely by the lines going through customs upon reaching DC, was relatively relaxed.


    I presented three posters as well as a talk on my research, all of which were (mostly) well received. I listened to interesting talks as well, including one which involved showing the original papers by Einstein discussing gravitational waves as a consequence of his theory of General Relativity (he got it wrong the first time around, but of course got it right soon thereafter!).

   After a brief stint at home, it will be thesis writing time!
