New Study on Pulsars

Recently, an international team of astronomers, including researchers from India, Japan, and Europe, conducted a groundbreaking study utilizing the Pune-based upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (uGMRT) and five other large telescopes.

• The study focused on pulsar observations and their implications for gravitational waves, providing key findings that advance the understanding of these cosmic phenomena.

Key Points

• Importance of uGMRT and Indian Telescope Data: The data from India's largest telescope, the Pune-based uGMRT, marked the first time that an Indian telescope's data was used for hunting gravitational waves.
• Confirmation of Gravitational Waves: The study provided compelling evidence confirming the existence of gravitational ....
