Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) can have billions of solar masses, and observational evidence suggests that all large ...
The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) is a huge installation measured in kilometers that is listening for wrinkles in space-time. Pulling this off is a true story of ...
The study authors propose that the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) has the potential to detect ...
A team of researchers at the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), in the U.S., has developed what they describe as a squeezed light system to improve detection sensitivity.
But he was proved both right and wrong 100 years later, when an international team detected them for the first time using a pair of 4km-long L-shaped machines called Advanced LIGO. Pallab Ghosh ...
A pivotal week in Corey Gray's life began with a powwow in Alberta and culminated with a piece of history: The first-ever ...
The best-fit models of LIGO's gravitational-wave signals are converted into sounds. The first sound is from modeled gravitational waves detected by LIGO on Dec. 26, 2015, when two black holes merged.
The code underlying the Nobel-prize-winning tool for modelling protein structures can now be downloaded by academics.
When black holes merge, what happens inside of them is anybody's guess. Black hole mergers are beautiful — and some of the most violent events in the cosmos. Here's how the process unfolds.
When Dawn Hauser asked the students gathered inside the Reynolds Elementary School’s gymnasium who liked adventure, every ...
Corey was on the graveyard shift at LIGO, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory in Hanford, Washington, when the historic signal came. This episode, Corey talks about the ...
