Gravitational waves finally detected!
Long ago, deep in space, two massive black holes slowly drew together. The stellar ghosts spiraled ever closer, until, about 1.3 billion years ago, they whirled about each other at half the speed of light and finally merged. The collision sent a shudder through the universe: ripples in the fabric of space and time called gravitational waves. Five months ago, they washed past Earth. And, for the fi

For the past 90 years, the predictions laid out Einstein's general theory of relativity have continued to be confirmed by experimental science. The last hold out is gravitational waves - the idea that certain gravitational events cause actual ripples in Spacetime. The problem is that the effects are almost beyond microscopic, so they are incredibly hard to detect. But have scientist done it? Have gravitational waves finally been directly observed??? Watch the episode to find out.

Gravitational Waves Detected for First Time
http://news.discovery.com/space/galaxies/gravitational-waves-detected-for-first-time-160211.htm
“A century after being proposed by physicist Albert Einstein, scientists have made the first detection of gravitational waves -- massive celestial objects on the move causing spacetime itself to ripple -- a historic discovery that opens up an entirely new way of studying the cosmos.”
Observation of Gravitational Waves from a Binary Black Hole Merger
http://authors.library.caltech.edu/64405/1/PhysRevLett.116.061102.pdf
“A century after the fundamental predictions of Einstein and Schwarzschild, we report the first direct detection of gravitational waves and the first direct observation of a binary black hole system merging to form a single black hole. Our observations provide unique access to the properties of space-time in the strong-field, high-velocity regime and confirm predictions of general relativity for the nonlinear dynamics of highly disturbed black holes.”
Gravitational Waves Detected 100 Years After Einstein’s Prediction
https://www.caltech.edu/news/gravitational-waves-detected-100-years-after-einstein-s-prediction-49777
“For the first time, scientists have observed ripples in the fabric of spacetime called gravitational waves, arriving at the earth from a cataclysmic event in the distant universe. This confirms a major prediction of Albert Einstein's 1915 general theory of relativity and opens an unprecedented new window onto the cosmos.”

Long ago, deep in space, two massive black holes slowly drew together. The stellar ghosts spiraled ever closer, until, about 1.3 billion years ago, they whirled about each other at half the speed of light and finally merged. The collision sent a shudder through the universe: ripples in the fabric of space and time called gravitational waves. Five months ago, they washed past Earth. And, for the first time, physicists detected the waves, fulfilling a four-decade quest and opening new eyes on the heavens. Learn more http://scim.ag/1QYgZwy

ESA’s LISA Pathfinder lifted off 3 December on a Vega rocket from Europe’s spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana, on its way to demonstrate technology for observing gravitational waves from space.
Gravitational waves are ripples in the fabric of spacetime, predicted a century ago by Albert Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity, published on 2 December 1915.
LISA Pathfinder will test the extraordinary technology needed to observe gravitational waves from space. At its core is a pair of identical 46 mm gold–platinum cubes separated by 38 cm, which will be isolated from all external and internal forces acting on them except one: gravity.

Albert Einstein predicted gravitational waves 100 years ago - Einstein's waves
The “chirp” is bright and bird-like, its pitch rising at the end as though it’s asking a question. To an untrained ear, it resembles a sound effect from a video game more than the faint, billion-year-old echo of the collision of two black holes.
But to the trained ear of experimental physicist, it is the opening note of a cosmic symphony. On Thursday, for the first time in history, scientists ann

Scientists have detected gravitational waves for the first time, ripples in spacetime first anticipated by Albert Einstein a century ago, in a landmark discovery announced in Washington on Thursday. This opens a new window for studying the cosmos. Using an instrument known as the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), scientists detected a gravitational wave from the distant crash of two black holes, one of several ways these ripples can be created.

아인슈타인 예측대로…100년만 ‘중력파’ 확인
Scientists have made a major discovery that could change the way we understand our universe.
Bruce Harrison joins me live in the studio with more.
Bruce, Albert Einstein hypothesized the existence of what he called gravitational waves a century ago... and now scientists say... he was RIGHT.
What are the possible implications of this discovery?
Hi Connyoung. According to the scientists, the discovery of gravitational waves... which they describe as ripples in space and time... opens the door for studying mysterious objects like black holes and neutron stars. But also, they said, this discovery could help in understanding the nature of the very early universe.
Bruce, I understand the researchers were searching for these waves for ten years. How they were able to make this discovery?
Their operations are based in the U.S., ... and they detected the waves using two massive laser instruments located in Louisiana and Washington state.
The lasers worked in unison to detect small vibrations from passing gravitational waves... and then the scientists converted that singal into audio waves. As one scientist put it -- you can hear the universe.
BUT WHAT created the created the waves?
According to the scientists... two black holes -- each roughly 30 times the mass of the Sun -- smashed into each other one-POINT-three billion years ago... generating the waves.
"Einstein would be beaming, wouldn't he? This is, obviously, a very, very special moment."
A group of Korean scientists also played a role in the discovery. The Korean Gravitational Wave Group's technology was used in analyzing and monitoring the gravitational waves.
"The software works to detect within three minutes whether a gravitiational wave is real."
The scientists from the observatory said they first detected the gravitational waves last Sept. 14.

Gravitational waves- Einstein's disvovery
In physics, gravitational waves are ripples in the curvature of spacetime which propagate as waves, travelling outward from the source. Predicted in 1916[1][2] by Albert Einstein on the basis of his theory of general relativity,[3][4] gravitational waves transport energy as gravitational radiation. The existence of gravitational waves is a possible consequence of the Lorentz invariance of general relativity since it brings the concept of a limiting speed of propagation of the physical interactions with it. By contrast, gravitational waves cannot exist in the Newtonian theory of gravitation, which postulates that physical interactions propagate at infinite speed.
Before the direct detection of gravitational waves, there was indirect evidence for their existence. For example, measurements of the Hulse–Taylor binary system suggest that gravitational waves are more than a hypothetical concept. Potential sources of detectable gravitational waves include binary star systems composed of white dwarfs, neutron stars, and black holes. Various gravitational-wave detectors are under construction or in operation, such as Advanced LIGO which began observations in September 2015.[5]
On 11th February 2016, the Advanced LIGO team announced that they had directly detected gravitational waves from a pair of black holes merging.[6][7][8]

The sound of two black holes colliding results in a middle C note, according to physicists.
Today, over 100 years after Einstein proposed his theory of general relativity, we are proud to announce that his final major prediction has been verified! Gravitational waves have officially been detected by LIGO! We are still getting details as the teams of physicists go over the data, but this is a huge deal, and is an exciting new step in understanding our universe,
A landmark day for Einstein and our understanding of the universe: the detection of gravitational waves. Brian Greene explains the discovery.

Where did these waves come from ?
All the huge stars and other objects in the universe produce these waves when they move in a particular manner. The gravitational waves that have been identified by our scientists on September 14,2015 were produced when 2 black holes in the universe combined together and formed a single black hole . Now, black holes are nothing but areas in space with very high force of gravity , and even light cannot escape from it.
Each of these black holes have masses that are 29 and 36 times the mass of the sun. So, when they got combined , they have a mass of 62 times that of the sun. This merging of the two black holes produced many gravitational waves, and the instrument kept at US has identified them.
Why was it so difficult to identify these waves?
The gravitational waves produce a certain effect throughout the path they travel . But , the effect they produce is so small that it was unable by any instrument to catch hold of it. But , an instrument called the LIGO((Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory) , is so sensitive that it succeeded it catching hold of this wave .
When were these waves produced ?
These waves were produced 1.3 billion years back when the two black holes combined together. Why did it take so long to reach the Earth ? It is because the Earth is so far away from space that even the light of the sun reaches 8 minutes after it starts from the sun. So , the gravitational waves started from the black holes 1.3 billion years back and they were identified by LIGO on September 14, 2015.
How can these waves tell us more about the universe ?
All the fascinations that we had about knowing about the stars and the sun and every aspect of the universe will now be answered. Earlier , scientists used light and similar waves to understand about the universe . But , they could never tell us realities beyond a point , about the universe. These waves could not bring enough information from space. But , scientists say that gravitational waves can bring us information from the innermost rooms of the universe and explain to us about the tiniest aspects of it. We will get proof of the existence of various objects in the universe , whose existence we weren't sure of.
So, get ready to explore the magnificient universe and travel deeper into the stars!

Albert Einstein predicted gravitational waves 100 years ago - Einstein's waves

The “chirp” is bright and bird-like, its pitch rising at the end as though it’s asking a question. To an untrained ear, it resembles a sound effect from a video game more than the faint, billion-year-old echo of the collision of two black holes.
But to the trained ear of experimental physicist, it is the opening note of a cosmic symphony. On Thursday, for the first time in history, scientists announced that they are able to hear the ripples in the space-time continuum that are produced by cosmic events — called gravitational waves. The discovery opens up a new field of scientific research, one in which physicists listen for the secrets of the universe rather than looking for them.
Thursday’s moment of revelation has its roots almost a century earlier, in 1916, when Albert Einstein predicted the existence of gravitational waves as part of his ground-breaking theory of general relativity. The intervening years included brush-offs and boondoggles, false hope, reversals of opinion, an unlikely decision to take a $272 million risk, and a flash of serendipity that seemed too miraculous to be real — but wasn’t.
Here’s how it all happened.
In 1915, Einstein gave a series of lectures on his theory of general relativity, asserting that space and time form a continuum that gets distorted by anything with mass. The effect of that warping is gravity — the force that compels everything, from light to planets to apples dropping from a tree, to follow a curved path through space.
Gravitational waves, which he proposed the following year, are something of a corollary to that theory. If spacetime is the fabric of the cosmos, then huge events in the cosmos — like a pair of black holes banging into each other — must send ripples through it, the way a the fabric of trampoline would vibrate if you bounced two bowling balls onto it. Those ripples are gravitational waves, and they’re all around us, causing time and space to minutely squeeze and expand without us ever noticing. They’re so weak as to be almost undetectable, and yet, according to Einstein’s math at least, they must be there.
But like the entire theory of general relativity, gravitational waves were just a thought experiment, just equations on paper, still unproven by real-world events. And both were controversial. Some people believe that the initial skepticism about Einstein’s theory, plus blatant anti-Semitism — some prominent German physicists called it “world-bluffing Jewish physics,” according to Discover Magazine — explains why he never got the Nobel Prize for it (he was eventually awarded the the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics for his explanation of the photoelectric effect).
So scientists came up with a series of tests of general relativity. The biggest took place in 1919, when British physicist Sir Albert Eddington took advantage of a solar eclipse to see if light from stars bent as it made its way around the Sun (as Einstein said it should). It did, surprising Einstein not in the slightest.
According to Cosmos, when he was asked what he would have done if the measurements had discredited his theory, the famous physicist replied: “In that case, I would have to feel sorry for God, because the theory is correct.”
One by one, successive experiments proved other aspects of general relativity to be true, until all but one were validated. No one, not even Einstein, could find evidence of gravitational waves. Eddington, who so enthusiastically demonstrated Einstein’s theory of relativity, declared that gravitational waves were a mathematical phantom, rather than a physical phenomenon. The only attribute the waves seemed to have, he snidely remarked, was the ability to travel “at the speed of thought.” In the end, Einstein himself had doubts. Twice he reversed himself and declared that gravitational waves were non-existent, before turning another about-face and concluding that they really were real.

Scientists struggle to stay grounded after possible gravitational wave signal
Not for the first time, the world of physics is abuzz with rumours that gravitational waves have been detected by scientists in the US.
Lawrence Krauss, a cosmologist at Arizona State university, tweeted that he had received independent confirmation of a rumour that has been in circulation for months, adding: “Gravitational waves may have been discovered!!”
The excitement centres on a longstanding experiment known as the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (Ligo) which uses detectors in Hanford, Washington, and Livingston, Louisiana to look for ripples in the fabric of spacetime.
According to the rumours, scientists on the team are in the process of writing up a paper that describes a gravitational wave signal. If such a signal exists and is verified, it would confirm one of the most dramatic predictions of Albert Einstein’s century-old theory of general relativity.
Krauss said he was 60% confident that the rumour was true, but said he would have to see the scientists’ data before drawing any conclusions about whether the signal was genuine or not.
Researchers on a large collaboration like Ligo will have any such paper internally vetted before sending it for publication and calling a press conference. In 2014, researchers on another US experiment, called BICEP2, called a press conference to announce the discovery of gravitational waves, but others have since pointed out that the signal could be due entirely to space dust.
Speaking about the LIGO team, Krauss said: “They will be extremely cautious. There’s no reason for them to make a claim they are not certain of.”
If gravitational waves have been discovered, astronomers could use them to observe the cosmos in a way that has been impossible to date. “We would have a new window on the universe,” Krauss said. “Gravitational waves are generated in the most exotic, strange locations in nature, such as at the edge of black holes at the beginning of time. We are pretty certain they exist, but we’ve not been able to use them to probe the universe.”
Einstein predicted that the waves would be produced in extremely violent events, such as collisions between two black holes. As gravitational waves spread out, they compress and stretch spacetime. The ripples could potentially be picked up by laser beams that measure minute changes in the lengths of two 4km-long pipes at the Ligo facilities.
Engineers occasionally add synthetic signals to the Ligo data to test the equipment. While these are designed to mimic gravitational wave signals, Krauss said he had heard explicitly that the signal had not been added artificially.
“I don’t know if the rumour is solid,” Krauss told the Guardian. “If I don’t hear anything in the next two months, I’ll conclude it was false.”
Gabriela Gonzalez, professor of physics and astronomy at Louisiana State University, and the spokesperson for the LIGO collaboration, told the Guardian: “The LIGO instruments are still taking data today, and it takes us time to analyse, interpret and review results, so we don’t have any results to share yet.
“We take pride in reviewing our results carefully before submitting them for publication - and for important results, we plan to ask for our papers to be peer-reviewed before we announce the results - that takes time too!” she said.
This article was updated on 12 January 2016 to include a response from the spokesperson for the LIGO collaboration.

Not for the first time, the world of physics is abuzz with rumours that gravitational waves have been detected by scientists in the US.
Lawrence Krauss, a cosmologist at Arizona State university, tweeted that he had received independent confirmation of a rumour that has been in circulation for months, adding: “Gravitational waves may have been discovered!!”
The excitement centres on a longstanding experiment known as the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (Ligo) which uses detectors in Hanford, Washington, and Livingston, Louisiana to look for ripples in the fabric of spacetime.
According to the rumours, scientists on the team are in the process of writing up a paper that describes a gravitational wave signal. If such a signal exists and is verified, it would confirm one of the most dramatic predictions of Albert Einstein’s century-old theory of general relativity.
Krauss said he was 60% confident that the rumour was true, but said he would have to see the scientists’ data before drawing any conclusions about whether the signal was genuine or not.
Researchers on a large collaboration like Ligo will have any such paper internally vetted before sending it for publication and calling a press conference. In 2014, researchers on another US experiment, called BICEP2, called a press conference to announce the discovery of gravitational waves, but others have since pointed out that the signal could be due entirely to space dust.
Speaking about the LIGO team, Krauss said: “They will be extremely cautious. There’s no reason for them to make a claim they are not certain of.”
If gravitational waves have been discovered, astronomers could use them to observe the cosmos in a way that has been impossible to date. “We would have a new window on the universe,” Krauss said. “Gravitational waves are generated in the most exotic, strange locations in nature, such as at the edge of black holes at the beginning of time. We are pretty certain they exist, but we’ve not been able to use them to probe the universe.”
Einstein predicted that the waves would be produced in extremely violent events, such as collisions between two black holes. As gravitational waves spread out, they compress and stretch spacetime. The ripples could potentially be picked up by laser beams that measure minute changes in the lengths of two 4km-long pipes at the Ligo facilities.
Engineers occasionally add synthetic signals to the Ligo data to test the equipment. While these are designed to mimic gravitational wave signals, Krauss said he had heard explicitly that the signal had not been added artificially.
“I don’t know if the rumour is solid,” Krauss told the Guardian. “If I don’t hear anything in the next two months, I’ll conclude it was false.”
Gabriela Gonzalez, professor of physics and astronomy at Louisiana State University, and the spokesperson for the LIGO collaboration, told the Guardian: “The LIGO instruments are still taking data today, and it takes us time to analyse, interpret and review results, so we don’t have any results to share yet.
“We take pride in reviewing our results carefully before submitting them for publication - and for important results, we plan to ask for our papers to be peer-reviewed before we announce the results - that takes time too!” she said.
This article was updated on 12 January 2016 to include a response from the spokesperson for the LIGO collaboration.

The Search for Gravitational Waves
Gravitational waves are ripples of space-time curvature predicted by Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. They are emitted by massive, rapidly accelerating sources such as binary neutron stars and/or black holes, core-collapse supernovae, millisecond pulsars, cosmic strings, and the Big Bang - some of the most energetic phenomena in the universe. Some of these sources, such as merging binary neutron stars, emit strong electromagnetic radiation, including Gamma Ray Bursts; but others, such as binary black holes, emit no light at all - they are the "dark side of the universe". By the time they reach the earth, the gravitational waves are exceedingly weak, and have so far escaped detection. We expect this to change in the next few years, as the Advanced LIGO detectors come on line in the US, along with Advanced Virgo in Europe, KAGRA in Japan, and Advanced LIGO in India. This detector network will identify the sources; permit unique and powerful tests of General Relativity in the strong field, highly dynamical regime; and open up a new field of high energy astronomy and astrophysics. I will give a brief overview of gravitational wave physics and astrophysics, and a status report on the emerging detector network.

For the first time, scientists, including those at Syracuse University, have observed ripples in the fabric of spacetime called gravitational waves, arriving at the earth from a cataclysmic event in the distant universe. This confirms a major prediction of Albert Einstein’s 1915 general theory of relativity, and opens an unprecedented new window onto the cosmos.
A team of physicists from Syracuse University’s College of Arts and Sciences has been instrumental in the discovery at the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO). They include Peter Saulson, the Martin A. Pomerantz ’37 Professor of Physics; Duncan Brown, the Charles Brightman Endowed Professor of Physics; Stefan Ballmer, assistant professor of physics; and a group of nearly two dozen students and research scientists.

Parte I - O que são as ondas gravitacionais?
Para começar a falar das ondas gravitacionais, temos que voltar em 1915, quando Albert Einstein publicou a sua Teoria Geral da Relatividade, explicando a gravidade como sendo uma curvatura do espaço tempo criada pela massa e pela energia.
Em 1916, Einstein previu que objetos muito massivos se movimentando de uma determinada maneira poderiam gerar ondulação no espaço-tempo, as chamadas ondas gravitacionais. A partir de então se iniciou uma verdadeira caçada para se tentar detectar as ondas gravitacionais e provar uma das conclusões mais importantes da Teoria da Relatividade Geral.
Parte II - O que é o LIGO e Como Ele Funciona?
Cada interferômetro fica localizado dentro de um túnel em forma de L com um vácuo ultra-alto no seu interior e operam de maneira uníssona para detectar as ondas gravitacionais.
O próprio Einstein questionou se seria possível criar um instrumento sensível para a detecção das ondas gravitacionais.
No vértice do sistema de vácuo em forma de L, um feixe de laser é dividido em dois, cada um desses feixes viajando ao longo do braço de 4 km do L.
O LIGO recentemente passou por uma grande atualização e se transformou no ADVANCED LIGO, só com isso foi possível realizar a descoberta anunciada.
Parte III - A Descoberta:
A muito tempo atrás, nas profundezas do espaço, dois buracos negros massivos começaram a se mover, um em direção ao outro.
A 1.3 bilhões de anos atrás, eles se fundiram a uma velocidade de impacto equivalente a metade da velocidade da luz. A colisão, perturbou o espaço-tempo, enviando ondulações, as chamadas ondas gravitacionais que então chegaram à Terra e em 14 de Setembro de 2015, às 6:51 hora de Brasília foram detectadas nos dois sensores do LIGO.
A Oscilação surgiu numa frequência de 35 Hertz e acelerou até 250 Hz antes de desaparecer 0.25 segundos depois. O aumento da frequência está relacionado com dois objetos massivos espiralando-se um em direção ao outro.
A fusão dos dois buracos negros produziu uma incrível explosão invisível. As modelagens que foram feitas mostram que o buraco negro final totalizou 62 vezes a massa do Sol, 3 massas solares menos do que a soma dos buracos negros iniciais. Essa massa perdida, se transformou em radiação gravitacional, uma conversão de massa para energia que fez uma bomba atômica parecer um estalinho.
Por um décimo de segundo, a colisão brilhou mais do que todas as estrelas em todas as galáxias, mas somente em ondas gravitacionais.
De acordo com Kip Thorne, ele mesmo, do filme interestelar, essa foi a maior explosão já detectada pelo ser humano superada apenas pelo Big Bang.
Os resultados passaram por 5 meses de testes até serem confirmados no dia de hoje, 11 de Fevereiro de 2016.
Parte IV - Qual a Importância dessa Descoberta?
A detecção marca o triunfo de uma equipe enorme de cientistas, cerca de 1000 físicos que trabalham com o LIGO.
A detecção é o mais importante legado do LIGO, que passou por uma atualização caríssima e como sempre foi muito questionado, o LIGO hoje se chama ADVANCED LIGO.
Em termos de significado e de potencial futuro a detecção das ondas gravitacionais é uma das maiores descobertas da ciência moderna. Podendo até mesmo fazer com que o ser humano seja capaz de vislumbrar como foi a criação do universo.

Summer School on Gravitational-Wave Astronomy
PROGRAM LINK : http://www.icts.res.in/program/gws2015
TALK LINK : https://www.icts.res.in/program/all/talks_tab/360/
TALK Title: Introduction to astrophysics and gravitational waves, and order of magnitude estimates by Cole Miller
ORGANIZERS : Parameswaran Ajith, K. G. Arun and Bala Iyer
DATES : Monday 29 Jun, 2015 - Friday 10 Jul, 2015
VENUE : ICTS Seminar Room , IISc Campus, Bangalore
DESCRIPTION :
Albert Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity, which is celebrating its centenary this year, predicts the existence of gravitational waves. Gravitational waves are freely propagating oscillations in the spacetime. The first direct detection of gravitational waves is expected to happen in the next few years by large laser interferometric detectors. Apart from the upcoming detectors in USA, Europe and Japan, there is an ongoing proposal to build a gravitational-wave observatory in India.
This summer school on Gravitational Wave Astronomy aims to train students and young researchers in the emerging area of gravitational-wave astronomy. The school will involve four graduate-level courses on different topics of gravitational-wave astronomy. The lectures will be given by five leading experts on these topics. The school is mainly intended for graduate students working (or starting to work) on gravitational-wave astronomy, high-energy astrophysics, cosmology and related areas. The school can also accommodate a few postdoctoral researchers working on (or planning to work on) these areas and a few highly motivated senior undergraduates.
