A record-breaking gravitational wave signal let scientists "listen" to a distant black hole merger and put Einstein's gravity ...

On January 14, 2025, a pair of black holes with nearly identical masses crashed together roughly 1.2 billion light-years away, producing a gravitational wave signal so clean and powerful that it ...

A newly detected gravitational wave, GW250114, is giving scientists their clearest look yet at a black hole collision—and a powerful way to test Einstein’s theory of gravity. Its clarity allowed ...

After a three-year hiatus, scientists in the U.S. have just turned on detectors capable of measuring gravitational waves—tiny ripples in space itself that travel through the universe. Unlike light ...

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 ...

One of the most spectacular achievements in physics so far this century has been the observation of gravitational waves, ripples in space-time that result from masses accelerating in space. So far, ...

Global climate models capture many of the processes that shape Earth's weather and climate. Based on physics, chemistry, ...
