Professor Takaaki Kajita, recipient of the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physics, delivered a public lecture on gravitational waves at Phenikaa University in Hanoi Friday. The session, "Decoding the Mysteries ...

A century after Albert Einstein predicted their existence, gravitational waves have finally been detected, tiny ripples in the fabric of space-time that were generated when two massive black holes, ...

A group of researchers have made a shocking discovery about one of the most fundamental forces in our universe. According to a new paper, which is set to publish in Physics of the Dark Universe next ...

Up until now, humanity has been deaf to the gravitational “sounds” of the universe. At last, we have heard our first message. On September 14, 2015, the first data arrived! Our observation of the ...
