Detecting new particles around black holes with gravitational waves

Clouds of ultralight particles can form around rotating black holes. A team of physicists from the University of Amsterdam and Harvard University now show that…

In the last few years, astronomers have achieved an incredible milestone: the detection of gravitational waves, vanishingly weak ripples in the fabric of space and…

Operating observatories around the globe target sky regions characterized by low contamination from Galactic radiation, looking for the imprint of Cosmological Gravitational Waves (CGWs) produced…

They may be tiny, but they pose a global problem for humans and the environment: microplastic particles. These are plastic particles with a diameter between…
