Valin Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Jul 6, 2023 The BIG news in physics is that a new type of gravitational wave has been detected using pulsar timing arrays. In this video we’re chatting about what a pulsar timing array actually is, what’s been found, and why the gravitational waves might be from pairs of supermassive black holes orbiting each other, but there’s evidence that they could be from new physics processes occurring in the early Universe… (Snip) 00:00 - Introduction 01:48 - What is a pulsar timing array? 04:47 - How are these gravitational waves different to the ones detected by LIGO? 06:33 - What are the pulsar timing arrays looking for? 09:37 - What does the data look like? 13:11 - Are these gravitational waves from pairs of supermassive black holes? 16:02 - OR Is there evidence for NEW PHYSICS? 21:34 - What's next then? 23:29 - Bloopers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
