A record-breaking gravitational wave signal let scientists "listen" to a distant black hole merger and put Einstein's gravity ...

Scientists have used theloudest gravitational wave signal ever recorded to put Albert Einstein’s century-old theory of ...

A newly detected gravitational wave, GW250114, is giving scientists their clearest look yet at a black hole collision—and a powerful way to test Einstein’s theory of gravity. Its clarity allowed ...

Ripples in space-time from a pair of merging black holes have been recorded in unprecedented detail, enabling physicists to test predictions of general relativity ...

For those who watch gravitational waves roll in from the universe, GW250114 is a big one. It's the clearest gravitational wave signal from a binary black hole merger to date, and it gives researchers ...

The LIGO/VIRGO/KAGRA collaboration searches the universe for gravitational waves produced by the mergers of black holes and neutron stars. It has now announced the detection of a signal indicating a ...

In 2019, LIGO and Virgo recorded something truly bizarre – a gravitational wave event less than a tenth of a second in duration. Compared to the drawn-out chirps of black hole binaries on decaying ...

EVANSTON, Ill. (CBS) -- Northwestern University astrophysicists were among those involved in an international research collaboration that has detected a gravitational-wave signal caused by a merger of ...

Gravitational waves are ripples in the fabric of spacetime predicted by Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity, first detected in 2015. But an expected corresponding low-frequency ...

Gravitational-wave researchers at the University of Birmingham have developed a new model that promises to yield fresh insights into the structure and composition of neutron stars. The model shows ...
