How ripples in space-time can reveal new exoplanets
Phys.org ·
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.
