In 2019, gravitational wave observatories identified an event known as GW190521 that baffled astronomers. It was initially interpreted as evidence of two black holes merging. But its characteristics ...

UC Riverside has developed a technology that enables scientists to peer deeper into the universe. Gravitational-wave science ...

When LIGO detected gravitational waves unleashed from two colliding black holes for the first time in science history, it set ...

Illustration of two black holes orbiting each other. Initially, scientists expected LIGO might detect just a few of these collisions. But now, nearing the first detection’s 10th anniversary, we have ...

A new study shines a little more light on the strange mechanics that lead to the birth of rogue waves, and it's less ...

"GW250114 is the loudest gravitational wave event we have detected to date; it was like a whisper becoming a shout." ...

Artificial intelligence is poised to take LIGO's search for gravitational waves to the next level, with Google's help.

A pioneering new approach to wave science could help improve early warnings for earthquakes, optimise renewable energies and advance medical diagnostics, researchers have said. A team of international ...
