Einstein@home News Q1 2011

After sleeping ALL day yesterday I didn't get anything done.....

Might attempt doing the wiring of the UV lights at some point today - as long as I can get rid of this headache. Then I shall bung up some snaps.

I'm happy at my first attempt at water cooling - no leaks :D
 
Quick Snaps:

Yeah, still gotta do the wiring for the LED's & Fans - need to get rid of this headache first :(

Am liking the temp's tho....

Were around 80c with the H70 maxing out at 95c when I tried to run Einstein...but as you can see from the screenshot the temps seem to have settled around 60/62c with a high of 69c

:)
 
Team stats speak for themselves....

27th January
Recent average credit RAC (according to Einstein@Home) 51,554

Today
Recent average credit RAC (according to Einstein@Home) 203,800 :eek:

Nice one Team :cool:

Nobody noticed the typo in the news post, for RAC it says Milkyway@home, sorry :o

I use the same templates for Einstein and Milky, the figures are correct though.

I think its time for a photo update Loudbob :)
 
Way to go Ba :D

The averages tumbled a bit because the servers ran out of work and boinc manager tends to back off for upto 24 hours
so if you dont check it and force a request through its a day lost crunching, well at least this is my experience.

News - Einstein@home users do it again

Einstein@Home Discovers New Binary Radio Pulsar
A new preprint reports the second Einstein@Home discovery, of a radio pulsar orbiting a white dwarf star once every 9.4 hours.
The pulsar, called J1952+2630, is spinning on its axis 48 times per second. It was discovered in data collected at Arecibo
Observatory in 2005 by the PALFA Collaboration. The white-dwarf companion star is unusually massive, and weighs at least
95% as much as our sun. This means that J1952+2630 probably belongs to a rare class of intermediate-mass binary pulsars (five were previously known).

The "discovery plots" can be seen near the top of the Einstein@Home (re)detection page.

Congratulations to the two Einstein@Home participants whose computers found J1952+2630 with the highest significance:

Dr. Vitaliy V. Shiryaev (Moscow, Russia)

Stacey Eastham (Darwen, UK)!

And a big "thank you" to all Einstein@Home volunteers, whose continuing support makes these exciting discoveries possible.

Its great when this happens, one of the guys live 5 minutes away from me :)

Crikey, popped back for a bit of a nosy and look at all this E@H activity. :)

Been doing 100% SIMAP since back before Christmas but the most recent batch of metagenomes stuff is about to run out so I should be able to add another 1K or so to the RAC in a week or so.
 
Just worked out how much data im pulling down for Einstein and its around 2GB a day:eek:

Ive got 120GB a month max (pay thru the nose if i go over), so einstein takes half of it:eek::eek:

Then add in seti , Milkyway and Folding its no wonder ive already done 180GB this month:(
 
On the plus side your gpu's last longer, which is sort of why mine are on it :D

Right, as you have dragged this post from the aybss and my shame is now running at 110% you have forced my hand.
The Q4 Edition will be out this weekend.
 
Lol excellent.
Just tried some folding on the other thread and it was crunching away at 100%!
Decided to swap back to Einstein instead.
Now how do you load 2 WUs? can't see any options for it. Or is it a matter of loading 2 boinc managers?
