A new study by researchers at the University of Amsterdam shows how gravitational waves from black holes can be used to reveal the presence of dark matter and help determine its properties. The key is ...

A team from Nagoya University in Japan has observed, for the first time, the energy transferring from resonant electrons to whistler-mode waves in space. Their findings offer direct evidence of ...

NASA's Atmospheric Waves Experiment (AWE) has successfully completed critical space environment tests. Planned for launch to the International Space Station in November 2023, AWE will study ...

Webb telescope data confirm a supermassive black hole fleeing its galaxy, carving a 200,000 light-year wake of new stars.

As Hurricane Helene slammed into Florida on September 26 as a Category 4 hurricane, it brought destruction and death across the U.S. Southeast. The storm claimed over 230 lives, making it the ...

Satellites recorded the largest ocean swells ever seen from space, highlighting how massive waves can act as storm "messengers," carrying a storm's power across entire oceans. Observations from the ...

One of the most spectacular achievements in physics so far this century has been the observation of gravitational waves, ripples in space-time that result from masses accelerating in space. So far, ...
