Scientists have unveiled a new approach to detecting gravitational waves in the milli-Hertz frequency range, providing access ...

Can we reveal objects that are hidden in environments completely opaque to the human eye? With conventional imaging ...

We also look back to two early Nobel prizes, which were given for very puzzling reasons. One was awarded in 1908 to Gabriel Lippmann for an impractical colour-photography technique that was quickly ...

Due to come online later this year and packed with state-of-the-art optics, Advanced LIGO is aiming for a direct detection of gravitational waves that will open a new window on the universe, say Iain ...

NEW YORK & STOCKHOLM--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Scientists at Applied Physics, an independent group of scientists and engineers who advise companies and governments on science and technology for both ...

Researchers at Tampere University and the University of Eastern Finland have reached a milestone in a study where they derived a new kind of wave equation, which applies for accelerating waves. The ...

Stephen Hawking's 50-year-old theorem on how black holes merge together has been successfully tested thanks to huge advances in gravitational wave astronomy, which helped astronomers catch the waves ...

Down at the level of atoms and electrons, quantum physics describes the behavior of the very smallest objects. Solar panels, LED lights, your mobile phone and MRI scanners in hospitals: all of these ...
