Fixed the physics of quantum noise in the LIGO lab – what you need to know?
Thanks to the work of the laboratories LIGO, VIRGO scientists have been able to detect gravitational waves researchers from the LIGO project demonstrated how the hyperfine tuning of the devices allows them to push the boundaries o...
Astronomers first saw the light from the collision of two black holes
the Collision of two supermassive black holes might look like this the Astronomers first saw light burst from the collision of two black holes. The object was found at a distance of 7.5 billion light years from Earth. At the time ...
Scientists have discovered an unknown source of gravitational waves
the Existence of gravitational waves predicted by Einstein's General relativity In 2016, the Laser-interferometric gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) has confirmed the existence of — changes the gravitational field that p...
The unusual collision of three supermassive black holes and its implications
it looks like the trajectory of the collision of three galaxies One of the most mysterious objects in the Universe — hiding in myself . Scientists around the world scratching their heads over such issues, how and why superma...
Scientists have found a giant black hole, but doubted it
Be a supermassive black hole depicted in the film “” Some of the most mysterious objects in black holes, regularly attract attention. We know that they collide, merge or change the brightness, and even evaporate. And yet, in theor...
LIGO quantum will receive updates and will find gravitational waves every day
Scheduled update of advanced laser-interferometric gravitational-wave Observatory LIGO will use ingenious quantum methods, this was the other day. However, this is interesting. The upgrade price in the $ 35 million will allow scie...
The Japanese detector is ready to search for gravitational waves
In search of the best detectors of gravitational waves, scientists are looking for the cold. The upcoming KAGRA detector will look for the ripples of space-time, using clever technological tricks: key components will be cooled to ...
Not exactly Bitcoin: how crypto currencies are developed most quickly?
Capitalization of crypto-currencies is not always an indicator of activity of its developers. According to the service CoinCodeCap is already on 52 place in the speed of development. According to experts of the platform, familiar ...
Five unusual facts about black holes that are "seen" by the LIGO Observatory
September 14, 2015, just a few days after the first activation, LIGO, earth passed through a gravitational wave. Like the billions of such waves, which passed through the Earth throughout its history, this was generated by the twi...
Danish physicists have questioned the detection of gravitational waves
the First direct detection of gravitational waves was revealed to the world on 11 February 2016 and has generated headlines around the world. For the opening in 2017 of physics received the Nobel prize and launched a new era of gr...
Gravitational waves may shed light on dark matter
the Future Laser interferometric space antenna (LISA) will be a powerful tool that will allow astronomers to study phenomena such as colliding black holes and gravitational waves moving through space-time. Scientists from the Univ...
Mathematics confirmed the possibility of data transfer with the help of gravitational waves
Mathematicians have analyzed the properties of gravitational waves in the General affine-metric space (algebraic structures acting on the concepts of vector and point) is similar to the properties of electromagnetic waves in Minko...
Gravitational waves have not shown the presence of extra dimensions
Although last year's discovery of gravitational waves last year, born of the collision of neutron stars, it was awesome, it added extra dimensions to our understanding of the Universe — literally, anyway. the Astronomers at the U...
Detectors of gravitational waves will be engaged in the search for dark matter
gravitational wave Detectors capable of detecting much more than gravitational waves. According to a new study, they can also potentially detect dark matter, if dark matter consists of specific particles — "dark photon". In the fu...
Could gravitational waves reveal how fast our universe is expanding?
Since its inception 13.8 billion years ago, the universe continues to expand, throwing hundreds of billions of galaxies and stars like the raisins in rising dough quickly. The astronomers pointed the telescope at some stars and ot...
Perhaps scientists have recorded the birth of smallest black hole
Spectacular merger of two neutron stars, which have generated gravitational waves, was last fall probably was hiding something: the birth of a black hole. This newborn black hole will be the most low-mass black hole ever found. A ...
A recent interview of Stephen Hawking
In mid-October of 2017, the whole world was hotly discussing an important scientific event. Scientists announced the first ever detection of gravitational wave burst from the merger of two neutron stars. This was done with the ass...
Only one merger of neutron stars and five incredible issues
17 Aug Earth made up both light and gravitational-wave signals from merging neutron stars. For the first time in the history of the pair of signals was registered by the people. Phase spiral whirling was observed by the detectors ...
Gravitational waves "neutron stars": why is it the most important discovery of the year?
For several weeks raged rumors that scientists have recorded gravitational waves — tiny ripples in space and time — a new type that is not associated with the collision of black holes. And here we saw a similar wave produced by th...
The European southern Observatory announced "an unprecedented discovery" in space
last week, the European southern Observatory (ESO) whetted the Internet news about the "unprecedented discovery". And finally, the organization revealed that for the first time in history, astronomers observed gravitational waves ...
