Scientists are using pulsars to detect the gravitational wave 'hum' created from supermassive black hole mergers. Credit: National Science Foundation (NSF) ...

Gravitational waves stretch and squeeze the fabric of space and time itself. When space/time is squeezed, pulsar pulses ...

Gravitational waves are tiny ripples in the fabric of time and space that are created by some of the universe's most powerful events such as colliding black holes.

If gravitational waves experience gravity, that means that gravitons don't just interact with the energy-carrying particles of the Standard Model, but there is a graviton-graviton interaction as well.

New research published in Physical Review Letters suggests that superconducting magnets used in dark matter detection ...

Gravitational waves, the result of two black holes merging, have been detected by a sophisticated observatory. Scientists say that proves Einstein was right.

Gravitational waves travel at the speed of light, but the astronomers realized a single rise and fall of one of the waves could take years or decades to pass by due to the space-time ripple effect.

This low-frequency background hum of gravitational waves in our universe was originally attributed to a change, or a "phase transition," that occurred shortly after the Big Bang.New research ...

The waves in Wednesday's announcement traveled for 1.4 billion years before they reached Earth late last year and set off detectors at the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO ...

It detects so-called high-frequency gravitational waves -- but there should also be low-frequency gravitational waves, and to capture those the ESA is already working on an incredibly ambitious ...
