Instead of the big bang, some physicists have suggested that our universe may have come from a big bounce following another ...

Astrophysicists have analyzed two merging black holes; the team's best models suggest that at least one, if not both, of the ...

A collision observed between two black holes, each more massive than a hundred suns, is the largest merger of its kind ever recorded, according to new research. Gravitational waves were predicted by ...

The LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) collaboration has announced a groundbreaking discovery in the field of gravitational wave ...

The nodes in a quantum network don’t necessarily have to be computers; they can also be atomic clocks. The cesium atoms that ...

In 1919, a total solar eclipse allowed scientists to confirm Einstein’s theory of general relativity by observing how the sun’s gravity bent starlight. This discovery revolutionized physics and made ...

A short-lived ripple in space-time revealed that two black holes merged into a giant black hole with the mass of 225 suns ...

The Trump administration has proposed closing either the LIGO Hanford observatory in WA or its twin in Louisiana.

Physicists from the University of Pennsylvania, working with colleagues at Arizona State University, are examining the limitations of a framework that aims to unify the laws of physics throughout the ...
