Fragen ans Universum “Was sind Gravitationswellen?”

Online talk
Gravitational waves allow us to discover a previously invisible part of the Universe. But what actually vibrates in these waves? The talk introduces Einstein's understanding of gravity and explains how space and time themselves can be carriers of waves triggered by the most violent events in the known universe. [more]
