To capture higher-definition and sharper images of cosmological objects, astronomers sometimes combine the data collected by ...

A new theoretical framework shows how subtle fluctuations in spacetime could be detected using existing interferometers.

Researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory are helping to pave a path for the eventual discovery of dark matter. With new approaches to measurement in the quantum realm, ...

Space rarely gives up its secrets easily. For instance, what looks like a single ...

How big would a telescope need to be to see Earth’s dinosaurs from 66 million light-years away? Think big—and then think ...

It may sound like an oxymoron, but this massive nanoparticle made up of 7,000 sodium atoms is the largest to exhibit such ...

The telescope primarily detects light in the infrared in order to observe sources such as the first galaxies and protostars.

To test the accuracy of the Octet ® assay, Fc-fusion protein was spiked into CCM and HCP matrices at known concentrations in the low (10 μg/mL), mid (40 μg/mL), and high (80 μg/mL) ranges of the ...

A record-breaking gravitational wave signal let scientists "listen" to a distant black hole merger and put Einstein's gravity to its toughest test yet.

Ripples in space-time from a pair of merging black holes have been recorded in unprecedented detail, enabling physicists to test predictions of general relativity ...
