NATURE | NEWS Einstein's gravitationalwavesfoundat last LIGO 'hears' space-time ripples produced by black-hole collision. 11 February 2016 One hundred years after Albert Einstein predicted the ...
The detection of gravitationalwaves marks the culmination of a decades-long quest that began in 1972, when Weiss wrote a paper outlining the basic design of LIGO. In 1979, the National Science Foundation funded research and development work at both MIT and Caltech, and LIGO construction began in 1994.
On 11 February, researchers in the US announced the first direct detection of gravitationalwaves - ripples in space-time that are the final unconfirmed prediction of Albert Einstein's theory ...
Scientists are holding a news conference Thursday, Feb. 11, at 10:30 a.m. EST at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., to discuss the search for gravitationalwaves, which zoom through ...
"We have detected gravitationalwaves. We did it!" announced David Reitze, executive director of the 1,000-member team, at a National Science Foundation press conference today in Washington, D.C. Gravitationalwaves are perhaps the most elusive prediction of Einstein's theory, one that he and his contemporaries debated for decades ...
Feb 11, 2016LIGO Hears GravitationalWaves Einstein Predicted About a hundred years ago, Einstein predicted the existence of gravitationalwaves, but until now, they were undetectable. TK
Taylor and Joel M. Weisberg in 1982 found that the orbit of the pulsar was slowly shrinking over time because of the release of energy in the form of gravitationalwaves. For discovering the pulsar and showing that it would make possible this particular gravitationalwave measurement, Hulse and Taylor were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in ...
The tweet that sparked speculation Einstein's gravitationalwaves had been found. Finding them, however, would be comprehensive proof that Einstein's famous theory of General Relativity is ...
The discovery of gravitationalwaves from a neutron-star merger and the detection of the event across the electromagnetic spectrum give insight into many aspects of gravity and astrophysics. See ...
