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 ...
Only a black hole—which is made of pure gravitational energy and gets its mass through Einstein's famous equation E=mc 2 —can pack so much mass into so little space, says Bruce Allen, a LIGO member at the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics in Hanover, Germany. The observation provides the first evidence for black holes that ...
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 ...
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 ...
Feb 11, 2016A team of scientists announced on Thursday that they had heard and recorded the sound of two black holes colliding a billion light-years away, a fleeting chirp that fulfilled the last prediction ...
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 ...
For the first time, scientists have observed ripples in the fabric of spacetime called gravitationalwaves, arriving at the earth from a cataclysmic event in the distant universe. This confirms a major prediction of Albert Einstein's 1915 general theory of relativity and opens an unprecedented new window onto the cosmos.
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 ...
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 ...
