The coalescence and merger of a lower mass-gap black hole (dark grey surface) with a neutron star with colours ranging from dark blue (60 grams per cubic centimetre) to white (600 kilograms per cubic centimetre) and highlight the strong deformations of the low-density material of the neutron star.

Researchers from the University of Portsmouth’s Institute of Cosmology and Gravitation (ICG) have helped to detect a remarkable gravitational-wave signal, which could hold the key to solving a cosmic mystery.
The discovery is from the latest set of results announced by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA co...
