A new paper presents a method for distinguishing between different sources of nanohertz gravitational waves. Pulsars may be ...

For decades, astronomers have listened to the cosmos through pulsars — rapidly spinning neutron stars that emit perfectly ...

UW-Milwaukee physics and astronomy assistant professor Lia Medeiros explains gravitational waves and the role UWM played in discovering them.

Identifying the gravitational waves from black holes binaries could also make it clearer to detect primordial gravitational ...

They suggest that when two supermassive black hole binaries emit waves at almost the same frequency, their interference ...

Satellite data from the SWOT mission reveals how massive waves act as storm "messengers," carrying a storm's power across ...

Researchers analyzing pulsar data have found tantalizing hints of ultra-slow gravitational waves. A team from Hirosaki University suggests these signals might carry “beats” — patterns formed by ...

We previously covered such “gravity telescopes” with the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) and the Kamioka Gravitational Wave Detector (KAGRA). These early 2 nd generation of ...

Pulsars suggest that ultra–low-frequency gravitational waves are rippling through the cosmos. The signal seen by international pulsar timing array collaborations in 2023 could come from a stochastic ...

Astronomers discover a low-mass dark object through gravitational lensing and multiple radiotelescopes across Earth.

Researchers have built a small but powerful detector to find gravitational waves in a hidden frequency range. The discovery ...
