Unlocking new insights into space with multi-messenger lensing
London UK (SPX) Jun 16, 2025 Combining gravitational lensing with new instruments capable of detecting gravitational waves and electromagnetic signals could revolutionize cosmology, astrophysics, and fundamental physics, according to a new study by an international team led by University of Birmingham scientists. The approach, known as multi-messenger gravitational lensing, uses the ability of massive galaxies and galaxy clusters to bend space and magnify distant cosmic events. When paired with advanced detectors that capture ... read more |
