AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 7 (TNSJou) -- The University of Texas at Austin's Texas Advanced Computing Center issued the following news release:
Solving the equations of general relativity for colliding black holes is no simple matter.
Physicists began using supercomputers to obtain solutions to this famously hard problem back in the 1960s. In 2000, with no solutions in sight, Kip Thorne, 2018 Nobel Laureate and one of the designers of LIGO, famously bet that there would b . . .
