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 ...
Gravitational Waves were only first observed in 2015, captured via instruments at the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory. This is going to change the way we look at physics forever, ...
Last month, work began on the world’s first space-based gravitational wave detector. The European Space Agency and partner aerospace companies are developing orbiting, detector spacecraft to observe ...
Pairs of black holes billions of times more massive than the Sun may be circling one another, generating ripples in space itself. The North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves ...
We suspect there are three kinds of people in the world. People who have access to a Michelson Interferometer and are glad, those who don’t have one and don’t know what one is, and a ...
The results are included in a new paper from the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) and the VIRGO gravitational-wave detector, which presents analysis of 10 stellar-mass binary ...
In about 11 years, one of humankind’s most ambitious missions is set to launch into space. Decades in the making, the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna, or LISA, could revolutionize our understanding ...
