Artistic impression of a wide laser beam, reflected by a large glass mirror in the arm of a gravitational-wave detector. In the background are merging black holes in front of a starry sky and warped space-time.

Crucial contributions by AEI researchers: How “off-key” detector calibration can bias signal-based tests of Einstein’s general theory of relativity. more

Artist's impression of a black hole which was formed in the merger of a binary black hole.

Artistic representation of a future underground observatory with long, illuminated tunnels and complex measurement technology. Laser beams forming a large triangle can be seen beneath the earth's surface. Two merging black holes appear in the sky, emitting gravitational waves that spread out in circles.
