Professor Stephen Eikenberry Interviewed on NPR’s Space Exploration Podcast

The research into black holes has delivered some rather “spooky” revelations.

That’s what CREOL Professor Stephen Eikenberry discussed on a Halloween-themed episode of NPR/Central Florida Public Media’s “Are We There Yet”? podcast. As he explains, black holes have quasi-regular “heartbeat” pulses that can be detected via X-rays.

Eikenberry’s research group focuses on studying black holes, neutron stars, Dark Energy, and extrasolar planets. He also specializes in building astronomical instruments to observe them.
