The journey began about 20 years ago. The Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) was built in Handford, Washington, and Livingston, Louisiana, to detect and study the gravitational ...
Last week, a breakthrough discovery was made in science that changes the way we view the universe, and part of that discovery happened in Louisiana.Scientists said last week that they have finally ...
As most of you have probably heard by now, two astonishing discoveries have recently been made (or rather one discovery leading to another discovery) by the LIGO (Laser Interferometer ...
Certain detection of gravitational waves requires at least two detectors located at widely separated sites. Regional phenomena such as micro-earthquakes, acoustic noise, and laser fluctuations can ...
It missed the historic discovery, but the Virgo lab in Italy is now primed to extend LIGO’s reach and precision. You have full access to this article via your ...
Two large, "L"-shaped instruments separated by 1,865 miles are eavesdropping on the most extreme events in the universe. The two Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) sites, ...
I spent last week at Columbia University attending the Edoardo Amaldi Conference, the largest annual international meeting on gravitational waves. Short synopsis: GWs have not been found. I was ...
