A cartoon illustrates results from the MICROSCOPE satellite mission, which has measured with astronomical sensitivity the falling rate of different objects under gravity.
A new model describes the population of black hole binaries without assumptions on the shape of their distribution—a capability that could boost the discovery potential of gravitational-wave observations. Read More »
A new gravimeter is compact and stable and can detect the daily solar and lunar gravitational oscillations that are responsible for the tides. Read More »
Black holes may be less unique than previously thought, as the expansion due to a cosmological constant can hold apart a pair of holes and allow them to mimic a single black hole. Read More »
