Meet GW250114, a landmark detection of gravitational waves that gives us an unprecedented view of the nature of black holes and the nature of space and time, as predicted by Einstein, Hawking and many others. journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/1…

A new study in Physical Review Letters analyzes #GravitationalWaves from GW250114, a black hole merger spotted by LIGO earlier this year, and provides the most precise confirmation yet for a #BlackHole theorem by #StephenHawking. ⚫ Read the paper: go.aps.org/4n7hXuT 📷 Aurore

So fun to write about GW250114 for Physics Magazine! We now have definitive proof that the surface areas of black holes increase, even when they merge (notwithstanding evaporation but that's another story.. ) Enjoy a quick read on this new result! physics.aps.org/articles/v18/1…

Ten years ago, we heard the universe for the first time. Now, we’ve heard it again... only louder. OzGrav researchers, Neil Lu, PhD student at the Australian National University (ANU), and Teagan Clarke, PhD student at Monash University, explain!

Ten years after scientists first detected gravitational waves emerging from two colliding black holes, a research team that includes Columbia University professor Maximiliano Isi, has recorded a new signal that confirms two important predictions. news.columbia.edu/news/unprecede…

What a difference 10 years makes! I am thrilled that LIGO's GW250114 will be featured on the cover of the Physical Review Letters just like GW150914, our first gravitational-wave signal, in 2016. You can see the detectors' improvement by eye: notice how much clearer the signal on the

#FlatironCCA astrophysicist Maximiliano Isi and colleagues have used measurements from LIGO to reveal insights into the properties of black holes and the fundamental nature of space-time, hinting at how quantum physics and Einstein’s general relativity fit together:

Black holes can ring, and we think those vibrations hold clues to the mysteries of space and time. Learn about the latest LIGO recordings of these fleeting black hole tunes simonsfoundation.org/2025/09/10/rin…

Almost 10 years after the first detection of gravitational waves, physicists have announced the strongest such signal yet. Produced when two black holes in a distant galaxy spiraled into each other, the merger enabled researchers to test Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity,

Thanks to improved technology and a bit of luck, a newly detected black hole merger is providing the clearest evidence yet of how black holes work: simonsfoundation.org/2025/09/10/rin… #science #astrophysics
