Ten years after scientists first detected gravitational waves emerging from two colliding black holes, the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA ...

On January 14, 2025, a gravitational wave dubbed GW250114 reached Earth. Like its predecessor, GW150914, it came from a pair ...

Gravitational-wave astronomy has exploded since 2015, capturing hundreds of black hole and neutron star collisions. With ever ...

The researchers employed a specific theoretical framework related to string theory to calculate the changes in these vibrations as black holes approach their 'limits.' The results indicate that as ...

Einstein’s theory of special relativity tells us that for a moving object, time passes more slowly than for a stationary ...

In a landmark achievement, astronomers have noticed light bending in an unexpected manner, one that doesn’t align with the predictions made by Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity. This ...

Researchers at Hiroshima University have developed a realistic, highly sensitive method to detect the Unruh effect—a ...

Astronomers detected in unprecedented detail a collision between two black holes. Their observations confirm predictions made ...

Recently, researchers at the University of Southern California proposed a novel theoretical framework that reveals the significant role of the Higgs field in the spacetime structure within black holes ...

Ten years after LIGO’s historical detection of gravitational waves, the project is cracking black hole mysteries at an ...

Meanwhile, LIGO has blazed a trail for a future detector called LISA that would fly into space and measure gravitational ...
