Scientists have discovered a new way to probe the interiors of neutron stars by using gravitational waves to turn them into ...

LISA is set to revolutionize our understanding of the gravitational universe and the interactions that make the entire cosmos ...

A decade ago, physicists using twin detectors in Washington State and Louisiana detected gravitational waves—subtle ripples ...

A new adaptive optics technology is set to transform gravitational-wave detection, allowing LIGO and future observatories like Cosmic Explorer to reach new heights. By correcting mirror distortions, ...

In a paper published earlier this month in Physical Review Letters, a team of physicists led by Jonathan Richardson of the ...

Detectors like Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) use laser interferometry to measure tiny distortions in spacetime caused by passing waves.

When two objects share a quantum state, their behaviour becomes mysteriously linked. If you measure one object, the state of ...

LIGO’s adaptive optics system will push laser power beyond 1 megawatt, enhancing gravitational-wave detection and unlocking ...

The team behind new research on the topic suggests that measuring whether gravitational waves from black hole mergers are right- or left-handed can tell us if the Cosmological Principle — an ...

A team of physicists at Fudan University, working with colleagues from Henan University, both in China, and from Nanyang ...

Scientists have discovered a new way to probe the interiors of neutron stars by using gravitational waves to turn them into "cosmic tuning forks." The reverberations of such ripples in spacetime ...
