super-chilled mirrors edge towards the borders of gravity and quantum physics
- Written by David Ernest McClelland, Distinguised Professor and Director Centre for Gravitational Astrophysics, Australian National University
Caltech / MIT / LIGO Lab, Author providedThe LIGO gravitational wave observatory in the United States is so sensitive to vibrations it can detect the tiny ripples in space-time called gravitational waves. These waves are caused by colliding black holes and other stellar cataclysms in distant galaxies, and they cause movements in the observatory...
