The 280 Mpc Void in the Local Universe

We recently reported a discovery of a ~280 Mpc void in the direction of the famous WMAP "Cold Spot". Look here for a site describing the largest void ever discovered. This project was a collaboration with Professors Lawrence Rudnick and Liliya Williams, and received a fair amount of press. It combines cosmology and radio astronomy, two of my favorite things to work on. Here is a copy of the paper and recent presentation that I gave.

More to come soon!
