The very concept of black holes seems improbable. Albert Einstein infamously refused to believe they could exist, even though ...

To date, the collaboration has detected dozens of merger events since its first Nobel Prize-winning discovery. Early detected mergers involved either two black holes or two neutron stars. In 2021, ...

The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) is no stranger to making history and breaking records. In 2015 ...

The powerful merger, designated GW231123, produced an extremely large black hole about 225 times the mass of our Sun.

The event is the most massive black hole merger ever recorded by gravitational wave detectors and has forced physicists to ...

A puzzling gravitational wave was detected, and astronomers have determined that it comes from a record-breaking black hole ...

Glasgow welcomes scientists from around the world for the GR–Amaldi conference, the premier meeting for gravitational physics ...

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.

Collaboration has detected the merger of the most massive black holes ever observed with gravitational waves using the LIGO ...
