How to pronounce“ligo”in English

LIGO has detected, I think, dozens of these things, maybe even over 100 at this point.

And LIGO has two lasers and the lasers are about two miles long and they’re actually at a right angle.

The LIGO accomplishment is huge on many levels, but it shouldn't be lost on us that this is one of the only times we've recorded something from space that wasn't brought to us by light.

In some sense LIGO, the instrument that measured the gravitational wave, it's doing something like that.

Even though LIGO had to record an incredibly quiet ringing of space-time, incredibly subtle

And the LIGO and Virgo gravitational wave observatories, they detected that.

detector like ligo you can detect these waves and so it was not just the message that we received for the first time

now we have LIGO seeing these signals and they say yeah there's this black hole spiraling through each other this is just a vindication of the power of

And then the observatories called LIGO, Virgo, these are essentially laser beams, so-called laser interferometers,

but now it's been measured by LIGO, is that these two neutron stars, they will orbit each other for like forever, but in the process they will lose energy.

- And presumably that would be observable with LIGO.

what are ways to improve ligo in the future increase the sensitivity i've seen a few ideas that are kind of fascinating

from the early universe yeah ligo's incredible engineering project is the most sensitive precise yes devices on earth

For example, the LIGO is a quantum sensor, right?

a little bit what you're referring to is ligo the laser uh interferometer gravitational wave observatory what is ligo

after einstein came up with his theory of gravity the ligo observatory detected gravitational waves and these are just

it was a breakthrough in a way um so combining ligo with

You can actually sit in the control room at the two sites of the LIGO observatories and listen to the detector.

But as we know now, thanks to LIGO, the gravitational wave observatory, I mean, we know already that before,

experimental, who later won the Nobel Prize for LIGO; and that movie is very accurate, scientifically.

You get these bright flashes of light or even gravitational wave detections from LIGO could be detected.

fascinating because you're talking about over a thousand people team for ligo yeah uh that started out with uh you know around a hundred

And to give you an idea about how hard this is to detect we used an instrument called LIGO, the Laser Interferometric Gravitational-Wave Observatory.

nobody seems to challenge the statement that this is the most precision precise instrument that's ever been built ligo i just i wonder what like listening to

now they say oh yeah of course you know the nobel prize was given to the you know to the ligo collaboration

-So you have this older word, which had a long vowel "li-ku," which is now pronounced ligo, and it refers to some sort

I, and I mean LIGO is super interesting with gravitational waves.

nothing yet i think yeah but you could say ah but it it's if it's just it's just much much smaller you can say that which by the way makes ligo and

quanta that's what a graviton is it's a wave in space-time and so the fact that we have seen the waves with LIGO over the course of the last three years and
