5 min read NASA Scientists Show How Gravitational Waves Can Reveal New Worlds The LISA (Laser Interferometer Space Antenna) observatory, now in development, will detect gravitational waves, the tiny ripples in space-time caused by orbiting masses. Now two studies led by NASA astrophysicists show in new detail how LISA could reveal a new and unique population of exoplanets — worlds beyond our solar system — throughout our galaxy. Watch to lea…
The upcoming LISA observatory, which will measure gravitational waves, will be able to discover a unique population of exoplanets. Detecting space-time fluctuations in white dwarf binary systems will allow astronomers to search for new worlds across the Galaxy.
Two new studies describe how the planned space observatory LISA could detect such worlds via tiny changes in gravitational wave signals. The James Webb telescope could verify possible findings with sufficiently close systems by infrared measurements. Greenbelt (U.S.A.). Exoplanets can often only be detected indirectly because their stars [...] The article Gravitational waves can betray planets around two white dwarfs appeared first on scanxx
