For those who watch gravitational waves roll in from the universe, GW250114 is a big one. It's the clearest gravitational ...
Ripples in space-time from a pair of merging black holes have been recorded in unprecedented detail, enabling physicists to test predictions of general relativity ...
A newly detected gravitational wave, GW250114, is giving scientists their clearest look yet at a black hole collision—and a powerful way to test Einstein’s theory of gravity. Its clarity allowed ...
The sharpest black hole collision ever detected just gave Einstein another win—and raised hopes that the next one might ...
LIGO's GW250114 signal tests Einstein's relativity, revealing black hole properties and confirming key theorems in ...
Planets orbiting dead stars known as white dwarfs might be able to remain habitable thanks to general relativity subtly altering their motion. When stars like our sun run out of fuel, they expand and ...

Astronomers have found thousands of exoplanets around single stars, but few around binary stars—even though both types of stars are equally common. Physicists can now explain the dearth.
