Gravitational wave facilities measure distortions in the fabric of spacetime down to 10 quadrillionths the width of a hair – small enough to hear interference from particles popping in and out of existence. Now the LIGO facility has pushed beyond this quantum limit by “squeezing” laser light, which will boost gravitational wave detections by about 60%.Continue ReadingCategory: Physics, ScienceTags: Quantum, Quantum Physics, Light, Laser, LIGO, gravitational waves, Caltech
