27 Jul 2026 » TDE 2025abcr paper published

Our recent paper on TDE 2025abcr has been published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters! The result was featured by NASA Universe on Twitter.

Not all those who wander are lost, but this black hole sure seems to be! Our Swift observatory caught a rare lone black hole devouring a star on the outskirts of a faraway galaxy. This event was seen after the star got too close to the black hole. More: https://t.co/nKXzZc9Ecm pic.twitter.com/SZBGrTZuFN

There was some also press coverage about this discovery, including:

10 Jul 2026 » Extragalactic Transient Universe 2026

I gave a talk at the “Extragalactic Transient Universe” in Marseille.

I talked about our now-published discovery of an ‘off-nuclear’ TDE, which is the first TDE discovered in the outskirts of a massive galaxy.

04 Nov 2024 » Keck Science Meeting 2024

I gave a talk at the Keck Science Meeting 2024 at Caltech.

It was the first time I have talked about our recent discovery of a supernova coincident with a high energy neutrino.

10 Aug 2023 » ZTF Summer School 2023

I gave a lecture on neutrinos at the ZTF Summer School 2023.

24 May 2023 » Caltech Colloquium 2023

I gave the Caltech Colloquium in May 2023, titled Chasing Ghosts: Electromagnetic Counterparts to High-Energy Neutrinos.

22 Jul 2022 » ZTF Summer School 2022

I gave a lecture on neutrinos at the annual ZTF Summer School 2022.

14 Jun 2022 » ZTF Science Vlog 2022

I did a 5-minute science vlog summary of my recent paper describing the ZTF neutrino follow-up program.

21 Sep 2021 » Keck Science Meeting 2021

I gave a talk at the virtual Keck Science Meeting 2021.

I talked about our recent discovery of a TDE coincident with a high energy neutrino.

Our paper A tidal disruption event coincident with a high-energy neutrino was recently published, and some excellent graphics have been produced to accompany it.

NASA created a fantastic 3-minute summary of the result:

Another beautiful video came from DESY+Science Communication Lab, visualising the properties of AT2019dsg:

There was also some coverage in the press, including:

20 Jun 2020 » Neutrino2020 Conference: Contributed Video and Poster

I presented a poster at the Neutrino2020 virtual conference, summarising our recent work identifying a high-energy neutrino coincident with a tidal disruption event.

As part of the poster competition, I also created a 2-minute video advertisement for the work:

The poster itself is here:

The submission won the session poster prize.

31 Aug 2018 » TeVPA 2018 Conference (Berlin): Contributed Poster

I presented a poster at the TeVPA 2018 conference, held in Berlin. The poster summarises an upcoming analysis searching for correlations between Tidal Disruption Events and neutrinos.
