Special Relativity
... Detector arms are 4 km long and can detect a distance change of 1/10,000 the width of a proton!!! Equivalent to measuring the distance to our nearest neighboring star to the width of one human hair. Laser beam is split into the 2 arms, bounces back and forth 280 times, and is eventually superimposed ...

... mass monopole, mass dipole). This is the basic idea of the Price theorem, which states that “in a stationary black hole spacetime, anything that can radiate will be radiated away.” Astrophysically, we don’t expect to see too many charged black hole. Even if a black hole was once charged, accretion o ...
