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

Scientists have evidence for a sea of ripples in space-time, called the gravitational wave background. Their experiment used dead, spinning stars to hack our galaxy and turn it into a wave detector.

Just over a week ago, European physicists announced they had measured the strength of gravity on the smallest scale ever. In a clever tabletop experiment, researchers at Leiden University in the ...

Scientists have recently identified an intriguing gravitational anomaly concealed beneath the icy vastness of Antarctica.

An eon ago, when only microbes dwelled on Earth, a pair of black holes some 1.3 billion light-years beyond the solar system ...

COLUMBIA, S.C. — We have two holidays to celebrate this week - Saint Patrick’s Day and the start of spring. Today’s experiment ties in both of those holidays. The experiment, sometimes called "walking ...

Scientists review research on gravitational wave detectors as a historical example of quantum technologies and examine the fundamental research on the connection between quantum physics and gravity.

A proposed experiment hopes to find gravitational waves, which are hypothetical fluctuations in the fabric of spacetime. All it needs is three satellites orbiting the Sun, and lasers capable of ...

Is gravity a quantum phenomenon? That has been one of the big outstanding questions in physics for decades. Physicists have proposed an experiment that could settle the issue. However, it requires ...

We are all bobbing in a sea of ripples in space-time, called gravitational waves, reverberating through the fabric of the universe, scientists announced on Wednesday. Those ripples are probably the ...

Quantum physical experiments exploring the motion of macroscopic or heavy bodies under gravitational forces require protection from any environmental noise and highly efficient sensing. An ideal ...
