Astronomers have discovered what could be the largest black hole ever detected. With a mass of 36 billion times that of our ...
One possibility is that the background waves come from defects in the very early universe as it changed phases. The idea is that this left an imprint in space-time, like the cracks that form when ...
Astronomers are trying to listen to the universe's background hum — a cascade of gravitational waves believed to exist since the first rapid inflation of space following the Big Bang over 13.8 ...
“We have evidence of what we call ‘the gravitational wave background,’ which is a hum of gravitational waves coming from all of the gravitational waves in the universe,” Dr. Sarah Vigeland ...
The detection of a predicted universal background of gravitational waves rippling across the fabric of space-time was announced last Wednesday by the NANOGrav consortium of over 190 scientists at ...
Astronomers across the world announced on Thursday that they have found the first evidence of a long-theorised form of gravitational waves that create a "background hum" rumbling throughout the ...
It's difficult to know how many stars have gone supernova since the Big Bang 13.8 billion years ago, but it's just possible that studying the background "buzz" of neutrinos, the so-called diffuse ...
Further, the cosmological processes outlined by the new study could also help the ongoing hunt for dark matter and dark energy, which together make up 95% of the universe but remain invisible to ...
