Scientists have observed a new type of black hole that is too heavy to have been born from a star but still too slim to … The ...

TELSTARS were put under pressure by a resilient Mystics side in the Port Moresby netball premier division clash at the Rita ...

This means LIGO would be able to detect gravitational waves even from merging neutron stars that are about 4 megaparsecs ...

LIGO detected the first-ever confirmed gravitational waves in 2016. Around the same time, its operators were thinking about ways to weed out the quantum disturbances.

Trump administration proposes closing LIGO Hanford or LIGO Livingston, jeopardizing cutting-edge gravitational wave research near Tri-Cities, Washington.

LIGO researchers are particularly excited for the new upgrade, however, because this pushes the instrument beyond what is called the "quantum limit" — a first for a gravitational wave detector.

Scientists believe if the Trump administration's proposed budget is approved, the Louisiana LIGO could be on the chopping block and "would cripple our scientific mission." ...

LIGO surpasses the quantum limit Date: October 23, 2023 Source: Massachusetts Institute of Technology Summary: Researchers report a significant advance in quantum squeezing, which allows them to ...

Cities, the Vera C. Rubin and LIGO observatories reveal cosmic secrets, one capturing light and the other listening for the ...

The twin LIGO gravitational-wave detectors at Hanford, Wash., and Livingston, La., will be joined for O4 by the Virgo detector in Italy as well as the KAGRA observatory in Japan.

The LIGO detectors in the states were meant to be joined by a third, the Virgo detector, which is located near Pisa, Italy. However, that detector wasn’t ready to go operational, ...
