Lowest-ever frequency gravitational waves spotted in pulsar data.
A team of physicists has developed a method to detect gravity waves with such low frequencies that they could unlock the secrets behind the early phases of mergers between supermassive black holes, the heaviest objects in the universe.
The method can detect
