Sharp wave ripples were already known to be involved in consolidating memories or storing them. The new research shows that they’re also involved in selecting them — pointing to the importance of ...

Around 1.8 billion years ago, in a distant galaxy, two vast black holes spiraled into each other, and their cataclysmic merger sent ripples through the very fabric of the universe. On August 14 ...

A video capturing an otherworldly view of ice ripples in winter has mesmerized viewers on TikTok. The clip was shared by @yoshi_bell and has amassed 9.5 million views since it was first posted on ...

Scientists have created a new map of "mega ripples" on the seafloor caused by the Chicxulub asteroid impact that wiped out the dinosaurs, revealing further the events that led to the devastating ...

"Our findings pave the way for rigorous examinations of black holes and the exploration of new physics in gravity." Cosmic echoes from some of the universe's most violent collisions are far more ...

The team believes these ripples are likely the result of external factors such as new gas streaming into the galaxy or interactions with smaller neighboring galaxies. "Both possibilities would ...

Cosmic echoes from some of the universe's most violent collisions are far more nuanced than scientists had realized, according to new research. Like the lingering chime of a struck bell, tiny ...

Researchers found that the impact triggered mega ripples on the seafloor, sometimes as high as a five-story building, extending across a much larger area than previously thought. They say the new ...
