Evidence indicates phosphine, a gas associated with living organisms, is present in the habitable region of Venus’ atmosphere.

Researchers suggest a novel process to explain the collision of a large black hole and a much smaller one.

A binary black hole merger likely produced gravitational waves equal to the energy of eight suns.

Despite the planet’s seeming standstill, graduate students continue to use LIGO to identify astrophysical events.

By making their own lava and cooled glass, scientists find these materials likely aren’t responsible for the unexpected glow of some exoplanets.

A colliding star may have triggered the drastic transformation.

“Light squeezer” reduces quantum noise in lasers, could enhance quantum computing and gravitational-wave detection.

Study shows LIGO’s 40-kilogram mirrors can move in response to tiny quantum effects, revealing the “spooky popcorn of the universe.”

Signal from 500 million light years away is the first periodic pattern of radio bursts detected.

Danielle Frostig, a physics graduate student, is developing an instrument to study how the heaviest elements in the universe are produced.
