A prediction of the gravitational waves produced by interacting black holes achieves high precision and demonstrates the link between general relativity and geometry. Read the paper: Emergence of ...

A decade ago astrophysicists at the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), operated by the California Institute of Technology and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ...

When two black holes approach each other, they spiral around each other for billions of years. In doing so, they continuously emit gravitational waves — a phenomenon first observed at gravitational ...

A team of atmospheric scientists is launching a cutting-edge research campaign from Des Moines as part of the Convective ...

We have long taken it for granted that gravity is one of the basic forces of nature–one of the invisible threads that keeps the universe stitched together. But suppose that this is not true.
