Gravity from mountains on rapidly rotating neutron stars produces ripples in space-time known as gravitational waves. The Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) searches for such ...

Can a particle be in two different places at the same time? In quantum physics, it can: Quantum theory allows objects to be in different states at the same time – or more precisely: in a superposition ...

Researchers co-led a study that will improve the detection of gravitational waves--ripples in space and time. Researchers at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities College of Science and Engineering ...
