A new concept for energy transfer between gravitational waves and light. When massive cosmic objects such as black holes merge or neutron stars crash into one another, they can produce gravitational ...

For more than a century, gravity and quantum physics have stubbornly resisted a common language, one describing the smooth ...

As physicists search for a theory of quantum gravity, new results show that classical gravity can still interact with quantum fields to allow matter to become entangled. When you purchase through ...

In early July, astronomers spotted a mysterious object, later dubbed 3I/ATLAS after it was confirmed to be the third-ever interstellar visitor cruising through our solar system. Last week, the object, ...

It was a bit shocking to see Vikings kicker Will Reichard miss a field goal due to a lack of distance during Thursday night's mess of a loss to the Chargers, but there's a logical explanation for what ...

Researchers have designed a new type of gravitational wave detector that operates in the milli-Hertz range, a region untouched by current observatories. Built with optical resonators and atomic clocks ...

Here’s what you will learn when you read this story: Gravitational anomalies detected by NASA and the German Aerospace Center’s GRACE satellites confused scientists for years. These anomalies are ...

Processes occurring deep within the Earth could be responsible for our planet’s changing gravitational field, according to new research that scoured orbital data for clues to the mystery. The shift ...

For the first time, astrophysicists have measured the recoil — or “kick,” in the parlance — resulting from the birth of a new black hole that formed from the merger of two preexisting ones. The ...

Gravitational-wave detectors have captured their biggest spectacle yet: two gargantuan, rapidly spinning black holes likely forged by earlier smash-ups fused into a 225-solar-mass titan, GW231123. The ...
