Scientists are using pulsars to detect the gravitational wave 'hum' created from supermassive black hole mergers. Credit: National Science Foundation (NSF) ...

The study, based on the analysis of echoes from the Big Bang, proposes that the void could be a major factor influencing the ...

Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, shifting tectonic plates—these are all signs that our planet is alive. But what is revealed deep inside Earth surprises laymen and scientists alike: Almost 3000 ...

Researchers have mathematically elucidated how the presence of crystals and gas bubbles in magma affects the propagation of seismic P-waves. A novel equation was derived to describe the travel of ...

Iono-seismic anomaly detection is challenging task for understanding the lithosphere-atmosphere-ionosphere coupling mechanism during earthquakes and tsunami events. To understand the interaction of ...

Gravitational waves can also function as a different kind of cosmic ruler. When combined with traditional light-based observations, they could refine distance measurements to far-off galaxies. New era ...

Scientists have known that seismic waves slow down when passing through ultra-low velocity zones, or ULVZs, but only knew they existed around hotspots that create volcanic island chains. Now, a ...

MARS COSMIC CLOCK - Seismic signals have suggested Mars gets hit by around 300 basketball size meteorites every year, providing a new tool for dating planetary surfaces.

The data they used are the “background” seismic vibrations generated by the oceans, winds, and human activity—not the seismic waves associated with earthquakes.

LIGO goes to space: ESA to proceed with LISA gravitational wave detector A gravitational wave detector in space will be sensitive to unexplored phenomena.
