An international team of physicists discovered the largest-ever merger of 2 black holes through a phenomenon known as ...

The largest black hole collision ever recorded has scientists' jaws on the floor — and scratching their heads.

The merger wasn’t just the biggest ever, but also an event so rare that it challenges existing models for black hole genesis.

A group of Manitoba researchers were involved behind the scenes of an international effort that this week revealed the first ...

A collision observed between two black holes, each more massive than a hundred suns, is the largest merger of its kind ever ...

The LIGO Hanford Observatory near the Tri-Cities and its twin in Louisiana detected ripples of time and space passing through ...

A short-lived ripple in space-time revealed that two black holes merged into a giant black hole with the mass of 225 suns ...

Gravitational wave detectors have "heard" the ripples in space caused by the most massive black hole merger yet. One ...

There are two LIGO detectors. One is in Louisiana (only 30 minutes from where I live) and the other is in Washington. Other gravitational wave detectors exist on Earth, but they were not ...

And LIGO’s second gravitational wave event, GW151226, is great for both! Essentially, on the pessimist’s side, GW151226 makes it all-but-certain that LIGO is picking up genuine gravitational ...

Within three weeks, it spotted its first gravitational wave event. A new era. Entire books could be written about all the steps that LIGO takes to limit the noise that is a constant feature of its ...

May 24 marked the start of O4, the latest gravitational-wave hunting effort of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration. But only LIGO is fully operational right now.
