The GIGA project aims to detect and characterize low-frequency gravitational waves generated by supermassive black holes in merging galaxies. By establishing a gamma-ray pulsar timing array, it seeks to overcome limitations of radio data and explore the implications for astrophysics and cosmology.
When galaxies merge, do their central supermassive black holes also merge?
How does the merger affect star formation and the evolution of galaxies?
How does physics beyond the Standard Model of particles affect the Universe?
The detection and characterisation of low-frequency gravitational waves (GWs) will address these fundamental and longstanding questions of astronomy and cosmology.
Supermassive black holes at the centres of merging galaxies are expected to form binary systems whose orbital…
