The scientists behind the MAGIS-100 experiment aim to use state-of-the-art lasers to shed light on ultralight dark matter.

A quantum trick based on interferometric measurements allows a team of researchers to detect even the smallest movements of a laser beam with extreme sensitivity.

When two black holes merge or two neutron stars collide, gravitational waves can be generated. They spread at the speed of light and cause tiny distortions in space-time. Albert Einstein predicted ...

We suspect there are three kinds of people in the world. People who have access to a Michelson Interferometer and are glad, those who don’t have one and don’t know what one is, and a ...

A double blast of dying stars may be the first observed case of a long-hypothesized, never proven “superkilonova.” Although astronomers are still searching for concrete answers, a study published in ...

Explosions of all varieties are booming throughout the universe. When a massive star dies, for instance, it bursts in a bright supernova, sometimes leaving behind a dead core called a neutron star.

Physicists are no longer content to simply listen to ripples in spacetime. A new proposal sketches out how an exquisitely tuned laser experiment could, in principle, nudge gravitational waves ...

An AI deepfake was final straw for a Washington state trooper. He's suing China launches its silver weapon on Jan. 1. Here’s what that means for prices. Who is Sarah West? Judge faces calls to be ...
