[ad_1] Twenty years ago, scientists were shocked to realize that our universe is not only expanding, but that it is growing faster. Determining the exact rate of expansion, called the Hubble constant …

[ad_1] Twenty years ago, scientists were shocked to realize that our universe is not only expanding, but that it’s expanding fasterover time. Pinning down the exact rate of expansion, called the Hubble …

[ad_1] Gravitational waves, which were first detected only two years ago, could help astronomers come up with a much more precise value for the universe’s rate of expansion. According to researchers at …

[ad_1] UChicago scientists estimate, based on LIGO's first rapid detection of a first collision of neutron stars, that they could have an extremely accurate measurement of the rate of expansion of the …

[ad_1] Snapshots of the 120-million-particle simulation of two dwarf galaxies that merge, each containing a black hole, between 6 and 7.5 billion years old. Credit: UZH The future Laser Interferometer Spatial Antenna …

[ad_1] There was a time when physics experiments could be carried out with two ballast balls and a tower in Pisa (although Galileo's famous experiment is probably apocryphal). Nowadays, scientists need a …

[ad_1] Astrophysicists used all available data on the GW170817 event. Astrophysicists were able to calculate the radius of neutron stars, light and gravitational signals from the merger recorded in August 2017. The …

[ad_1] An international group of astronomers and physicists have reported the first simultaneous detection of light and gravitational waves from the same source – a fusion of two neutron stars. Now a …
