Two merging black holes, each roughly 30 times the mass of the sun, in a computer simulation. Gravitational wave observatories, such as the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), ...

A gravitational wave detector just picked up something that could, in theory, demystify the deepest secrets surrounding the birth of the universe. The detector, which is based around using a ringing ...

EVANSTON, Ill. (CBS) -- A Northwestern University astrophysicist is part of an international team of scientists creating a gravitational wave detector system that will eventually be launched into ...

Detecting gravity waves isn’t easy. But what if you had a really big detector for a long time? That’s what researchers did when they crunched 15 years’ worth of data from the NANOGrav data set. The ...

In a single decade, we have gone from the first-ever gravitational wave detection to several hundred of them. Every time ...

The LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) collaboration recently began a new observing run that promises to take gravitational-wave astronomy to the next level. According to scientists from across the ...

New research has shown that future gravitational wave detections from space will be capable of finding new fundamental fields and potentially shed new light on unexplained aspects of the Universe. New ...
