Hyde Park Labs, at 5207 S. Harper Ave. north and east of the University of Chicago campus, opened about two and a half months ...

Gravitational waves shake the very fabric of the universe when black holes collide. Today we measure these events and use them to understand the ...

Mathematical quirks of our universe have led some cosmologists to wonder whether the cosmos was actually born in a black hole ...

It’s officially been 10 years since the first detection of gravitational waves. At the time, it had been 100 years since Albert Einstein predicted gravitational waves in his “Theory of General ...

The speed of light, c, is not just a very large number. In modern physics it is a structural constant: the conversion factor ...

The team concluded that the recoil of the remnant of GW190412 surpassed 50 km/s – enough to expel the black hole from a ...

We often marvel at the genius of Albert Einstein, a physicist who revolutionized our understanding of the universe. Yet, even ...

When LIGO detected gravitational waves unleashed from two colliding black holes for the first time in science history, it set off a whole new era in astronomy.

Stephen Hawking's and Albert Einstein’s predictions have finally been proved right after a 'black hole collision'. In January this year, astronomers spotted two black holes colliding into one another ...

Is time something that flows — or just an illusion? Exploring space-time as either a fixed “block universe” or a dynamic fabric reveals deeper mysteries about existence, change, and the very nature of ...

On September 14, 2015, a signal arrived on Earth, carrying information about a pair of remote black holes that had spiraled ...

Since that day, LIGO — composed of two highly sensitive laser interferometers located in Hanford, Washington and Livingston, ...
