An international team led from Cardiff University has confirmed that black hole binaries experience precession.
Want to take a look at some black hole binary systems? Well then NASA's got your back with this stunning…
Gravitational waves from merging black holes can tell us more about a gravitational dance known as spin-orbit resonance.
In another first, the latest gravitational wave event to be detected came from the merger of two black holes of…
Einstein's Theory of General Relativity predicted that black holes would form and eventually collide. It also predicted the creation of…
The LIGO and Virgo collaborations recently announced the detection of four more gravitational wave events, bringing the total to eleven.
