A new composite image reveals the “Champagne Cluster” as two massive galaxy clusters caught in a rare, violent collision.
The modelling of a gravity profile across the Satpura Fold Belt (SFB) constrained from seismic and other available information, suggests that the gravity high observed over the SFB is caused due to ...
The gravity wave detections were in 2015 when Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) researchers detected the impact of two black holes. On October 1st, LIGO’s Hanford (LHO) and ...
Matt Goldberg has been an editor with Collider since 2007. As the site's Chief Film Critic, he has authored hundreds of reviews and covered major film festivals including the Toronto International ...
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration and the Virgo collaboration have reported the first detection of a gravitational-wave event picked up by the giant laser interferometers on both sides of the Atlantic ...
How telescopes closed in on colliding neutron stars. Yellow contours show area of gamma ray burst detected by NASA’s Fermi telescope. White contours show the area of gravitational wave signal ...
Gravitational-wave astronomers have for the first time detected a collision between two black holes of substantially different masses—opening up a new vista on astrophysics and on the physics of ...
US astronomers claim to have observed dark matter – the elusive substance that is believed to be five times as common as normal matter, accounting for nearly a quarter of the universe. NASA’s Chandra ...
A collision between two giant black holes is the most titanic smashup astronomers can imagine. Nobody’s ever seen it happen—but if a new report in Astrophysical Journal Letters is correct, they might ...
