EINSTEIN@HOME - Team FreeBSD
A team dedicated to the users of FreeBSD running BOINC under linux compatibility mode, or a native FreeBSD BOINC build. Team FreeBSD is dedicated to users of FreeBSD, but not limited to JUST the users. Anyone with the interest in developing a community of people interested in technology, open standards, NIX or BSD based operating systems are welcome and encouraged to earn credits and share ideas and conversation.

Memory of SampsonStein
17 April, 2008 00:59 CST6CDT"My name is Brad Stein. I am running BOINC in memory of my son Sampson who passed away Aug 30, 2007 at the age of 18. He had some computers running BOINC but they are all FreeBSD(Sam's Op Sys of choice) and until I learn a little more about it I will start putting up computers with windows. Sam always wanted to help others so thats why I am continuing on for him.
I am also going to start naming the computers I add after other loved ones who have passed on. This way their memory can help help make this world a better place." --

That is a beautiful gesture and it is an honor for me to have you involved with our group.

For those of you wondering what the EINSTEIN@HOME Project is:
Einstein@Home uses your computer's idle time to search for weak astrophysical signals from spinning neutron stars (also called pulsars) using data from the LIGO gravitational-wave detectors, the Arecibo radio telescope, and the Fermi gamma-ray satellite. Einstein@Home volunteers have already discovered more than a dozen new neutron stars, and we hope to find many more in the future. Our long-term goal is to make the first direct detections of gravitational-wave emission from spinning neutron stars. Gravitational waves were predicted by Albert Einstein almost a century ago, but have never been directly detected. Such observations would open up a new window on the universe, and usher in a new era in astronomy.My name is Andy Wright - the founder, but really the creator of Team FreeBSD. If you want me to add any links, or have any questions or inclinations for such things related to our group (or to just say hi) - send me an e-mail: einstein@extracted.org or Skype name: extracted
''It would be possible to describe everything scientifically, but it would make no sense; it would be without meaning, as if you described a Beethoven symphony as a variation of wave pressure'' -- Albert Einstein

| Einstein@Home volunteers discover three new radio pulsars in Arecibo data |
Einstein@Home volunteers have discovered three new radio pulsars in Arecibo PALFA data -- the eighth, ninth and tenth new radio pulsars found by Einstein@Home volunteers in this data set! Congratulations to:
Further details about these newly-discovered pulsars can be found on this web page, and will be published in due course.
