The short answer to your question is that the energy equivalent of 3 solar masses, or three times the mass of our Sun, was carried away in the form of gravitational wave radiation. Recall the famous ...

LISA is set to revolutionize our understanding of the gravitational universe and the interactions that make the entire cosmos turn. Reading time 6 minutes LISA, a $1.6 billion gravitational wave ...

Astronomers and astrophysicists at five different pulsar timing array collaborations today announced data that strongly suggests the presence of a gravitational wave background: a constant murmur of ...

In a paper published Nov. 7th on the preprint server ArXiv, the team has detected a further 35 gravitational wave events since the last catalog release in October 2020, bringing to 90 the total number ...

Black holes may defy the famous “no-hair” theorem by leaking residual gravitational ripples that could one day be observed by gravitational-wave detectors. Such an observation would provide evidence ...

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 ...

Researchers have found the first direct evidence of a “background” of gravitational waves in the universe — a sign that gravitational waves from slowly merging pairs of supermassive black holes, or ...

Scientists at the University of Colorado Boulder may have solved a pressing mystery about the universe’s gravitational wave background. That’s the name for the ripples in space and time that move ...
