More resources on Black Holes & Gravitational Waves
Event Horizon Telescope
Official site of the global VLBI array that produced the first images of the M87 and Sagittarius A* black holes. Carries press releases, published results, telescope details, and data releases from the collaboration.
Black Holes
University of Alberta's introductory astronomy course, using black holes as the through-line for light, gravity, relativity, quantum physics, and stellar evolution. Finishing it, you can explain event horizons, Hawking radiation, and gravitational lensing in plain language.
Gravity's Fatal Attraction
Non-technical account of black hole astrophysics by two working theorists, covering stellar-mass and supermassive holes, accretion discs, jets, and quasars. Readers come away understanding the observational evidence astronomers use to infer black holes exist.
Gravitational Waves
Graduate-level second volume of Maggiore's treatise, treating gravitational-wave sources: compact binary coalescence, supernovae, pulsars, and stochastic cosmological backgrounds. Requires general relativity and field theory; prepares readers to follow LIGO-Virgo detection papers and source-modelling literature.
