Predicted by Einstein and dismissed as undetectable, gravitational waves were finally heard in 2016. Now, with observatories ...

Decades in the making, the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna, or LISA, could revolutionize our understanding of the universe through its detections of gravitational waves.

Gravitational wave detectors like LIGO use interferometry to sense the ripples of spacetime caused by the motion and interactions of massive objects like black holes and neutron stars.

Matter-wave interferometry is a powerful technique for probing fundamental physics. It takes advantage of wave–particle duality in quantum physics, which says that atoms behave as waves as well as ...

A new paper suggests we may finally be able to uncover the identity of dark matter using the same technology that detects ripples in space-time known as gravitational waves.

A team of astronomers has come up with a method for using gravitational waves to study the mysterious phenomenon of dark matter.

At the heart of this breakthrough device is something called "matter wave interferometry," which uses two distinct characteristics of quantum mechanics: wave-particle duality and superposition.

The JILA team’s experimental setup uses a matter-wave interferometer, which interferes massive quantum particles in the same way as an ordinary interferometer interferes beams of light.

A team of researchers at JILA has for the first time successfully combined two of the 'spookiest' features of quantum mechanics to make a better quantum sensor: entanglement between atoms and ...

Scientists reported the first-ever direct detection of gravitational waves in 2016 using the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), a discovery that earned the 2017 Nobel ...
