…t a century had to elapse between Einstein's prediction of gravitational waves (GWs; Einstein 1916 ) and their measurement from a coalescing binary of stellar-mass black holes (Abbott et al. 2016 ). However, their existence had been confirmed in the late 1970s through measurement…

… NANOGrav Collaboration (comments@nanograv.org) June, 2023 Gravitational waves (GWs) have revolutionized how we observe and study the universe, and yet we currently “see” only a tiny fraction of the full GW spectrum. It’s as if astronomers’ telescopes could only see x-rays – we’d…
