Welcome to SXS! [Currently under construction!]

This wiki aims to provide new members at all stages useful resources and advice. Please find the categories below that are useful to you:

I am just getting started in SXS ...

One of the very first things you should do is obtain a black-holes.org email account. You will need this to join SXS meetings and use the SXS Slack. Email Larry Kidder in order to obtain one.

Once you have your email, one of the first things you should do is join the SXS Slack, which will put you in touch with most of the researchers in SXS. You can also find the researchers in the SXS Personnel Directory.

We have many weekly telecons, so it is useful to check out the SXS Meetings (if you are just starting out, the SXS Group Meeting is nice to attend).
