A new theoretical study suggests that gravitational waves may leave subtle signatures not in giant detectors, but in the ...
It may well take years to prove, but a pair of University of Miami astrophysicists could be on the verge of a cosmic ...
For decades, astronomers have been puzzled by strange “zebra stripe” patterns in radio waves from the Crab Pulsar — bright bands separated by complete darkness. Now, new research suggests the answer ...
A new data release more than doubles the number of gravitational-wave candidate events—and reveals unexpected complexities of merging black holes ...
A team of scientists led by expert Raúl Jiménez, ICREA researcher at the University of Barcelona's Institute of Cosmos Sciences (ICCUB), in collaboration with the University of Padua (Italy), has ...
A physicist has proposed a bold experiment that could allow gravitational waves to be manipulated using laser light. By transferring minute amounts of energy between light and gravity, the interaction ...
It generates no gravitational waves and has no ADM mass. ADM stands for Arnowitt–Deser–Misner, named for three physicists. But the warp drive is only undetectable if it's constant and stable. Once it ...
Scott Detrow talks to Lulu Miller, the host of Radiolab's Terrestrials podcast, about her conversation with the scientist Wanda Diaz-Merced, who studies gravitational waves that ripple through ...
A new study by researchers from the University of Barcelona and the University of Padua challenges one of the core ideas of modern cosmology: that the Universe began with a rapid expansion called ...
Scientists have spent decades trying to understand how gravity operates at its most basic scale. However, no theory has come close to fully explaining it. Now, though, a new theory could finally give ...
