Probing the beginning of the Universe can soon be done more accurately

As many as 200 telescopes will be erected, in order to achieve the highest possible precision in measuring the radiation from the Universe.

NSF Awards Funding for the IceCube Upgrade

The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is about to get a significant upgrade. The World's largest neutrino telescope, located at the South Pole, is run by an international team of more than 300 scientists, including a group a…

A New Upgrade for the IceCube Detector

The IceCube Neutrino Observatory in Antarctica is about to get a significant upgrade. The purpose of this huge installation is to detect neutrinos, the “ghost particles” of the Universe.

Neutronstjerners sammenstød rystede universet

For første gang er det lykkedes at opfange tyngdebølger såvel som lys fra to kolliderende neutronstjerner. Den banebrydende opdagelse indleder en helt ny æra inden for astronomien.

Astronomerne har fået en ekstra sans

Nu er det for første gang lykkedes at detektere tyngdebølger såvel som elektromagnetiske stråling fra det samme objekt. Vi har fået en ny sans, så vi nu også kan opfatte tyngdeverdenen, vi kan både se og høre universet.

Nu er det bevist: Her kommer de tunge grundstoffer fra

Opdagelsen af en kilonova fremkommet ved sammenstødet mellem to neutronstjerner bringer forskerne et stort skridt nærmere opklaringen af en af videnskabens store gåder: Hvordan de tungeste grundstoffer i universet er…

Sådan gjorde de: Den største astronomiske opdagelse i nyere tid

En videnskabelig sensation kom i hus, da tusindvis af forskere samarbejdede om at måle tyngdebølger og lys fra sammenstødet mellem to neutronstjerner 140 millioner lysår væk.
