Scientists announced they have developed an artificial intelligence program capable of designing gravitational wave detectors that outperform human-made versions, potentially supercharging our ability ...

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 ...

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 ...

The 2017 Nobel prize for physics was given for the confirmation of a prediction made 101 years earlier. In 1916 Albert Einstein, whose theories of special and general relativity revolutionised ...

Glassy materials are everywhere, with applications far exceeding windowpanes and drinking glasses. They range from bioactive ...

"So far we have been watching the cosmos like a silent movie, capturing the ripples of spacetime with LISA will be a real game-changer, like when sound was added to motion pictures." When you purchase ...
