Gravitational Waves Reveal Black Hole Ancestry Through Spin Analysis

Ripples in spacetime, known as gravitational waves, are being used to determine the ancestry of black holes. These waves, first theorised by Albert Einstein, are offering insights into how black holes form and evolve. Scientists have uncovered that the spin of a black hole can indicate whether it originated from repeated mergers in densely packed … Read more
