Gravitational waves spotted by LIGO reveal two black holes, 140 and 100 times the mass of the sun, merged to become a 225 solar mass behemoth.
Astronomers have been aware of cosmic vampires, dead stars that hungrily strip plasma from victim stars, for some time. New ...
Once again, gravitational waves have been observed whose origin should not actually exist: a collision of black holes with "forbidden" mass.
New gravitational wave findings from the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration report the discovery of the largest black hole merger ...
The most massive gravitationally detected black hole merger to date has been observed by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration.
Scientists have witnessed evidence of a collision between black holes so huge that it defies their understanding of physics.
To date, the collaboration has detected dozens of merger events since its first Nobel Prize-winning discovery. Early detected ...
A physics conference has received a report of the gravitational wave from the heaviest pair of black holes we’ve so far observed merging. The result is larger than theoretical models allow through ...
