First detected in 2015, gravitational waves may not have had a direct hand in human evolution, but it certainly helped set ...

In 2015, a piece of equipment at an observatory in the US moved one quintillionth (10-18) of a meter. This tiny movement was ...

A new publication introduces the rapidly growing field of multi-messenger gravitational lensing, which combines ...

Researchers repurposed an experiment originally intended to detect gravity, which involved a floating magnet in a ...

Researchers look for high-energy light from gravitational-wave candidates in LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Observation Runs with India’s AstroSat-CZTI ...

Jackie explains that a laser inside the tubes is split, bounces off mirrors, and goes straight back to sensors at the center ...

Currently, researchers use radio signals from pulsars—rapidly spinning stars—to detect gravitational waves. In 2023, the NANOGrav collaboration found evidence of gravitational waves by ...

Scientists announced they have developed an artificial intelligence program capable of designing gravitational wave detectors that outperform human-made versions, potentially supercharging our ...

A study published in Nature has established a new benchmark in modeling the universe's most extreme events: the collisions of ...

As gravitational wave detectors become more advanced, tracing their principles and history can engage undergraduate students with modern physics.
