The LIGO Hanford Observatory near the Tri-Cities and its twin in Louisiana detected ripples of time and space passing through ...

Physicists call such ripples gravitational waves. Gravitational waves were predicted by Albert Einstein in 1915 as part of his theory of relativity, but he thought they were too weak to ever ...

The massive black hole has been dubbed GW231123. Its unusual size and behavior is challenging scientists' understanding of ...

An international team of physicists discovered the largest-ever merger of 2 black holes through a phenomenon known as gravitational waves.

The LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) collaboration has announced a groundbreaking discovery in the field of gravitational wave astronomy. The international research team has detected the most massive merger ...

A physics conference has received a report of the gravitational wave from the heaviest pair of black holes we’ve so far ...

New gravitational wave findings from the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration report the discovery of the largest black hole merger ...

To date, the collaboration has detected dozens of merger events since its first Nobel Prize-winning discovery. Early detected ...

Gravitational-wave detectors have captured their biggest spectacle yet: two gargantuan, rapidly spinning black holes likely ...

A U.S. gravitational wave detector spotted a collision between fast-spinning “forbidden” black holes that challenge physics ...

Astronomers have detected the largest black hole merger ever, and it has challenged their understanding of such formations.

The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) is no stranger to making history and breaking records. In 2015 ...
