What does it take to quantify a change in distance smaller than one-ten-thousandth the size of a proton? For the LIGO, Virgo, and KAGRA (LVK) scientists, it is the secret to opening some of the ...

First, gravitational waves proved Einstein correct. Now, they’ve confirmed Stephen Hawking was right about black holes.

AI is rewriting the laws of physics, uncovering hidden forces, and reshaping our understanding of the universe. Discover the ...

The researchers found that a slightly curved meniscus allows more wave energy to pass through the barrier. Conversely, if the meniscus curves more steeply, it reduces the energy transported by the ...

Scientists propose that gravitational waves shaped the universe. Their model challenges inflation theory. How exactly did the ...

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 ...

A quiet revolution is taking shape in the world of physics, and it doesn’t rely on exotic particles or massive particle colliders. Instead, it begins with something much more familiar—sound.
