Scientists in Wales have built the world’s most sensitive table-top interferometer, which is a miniature, ultra-precise instrument capable of measuring distortions in space-time smaller than a trillionth of a human hair. The research team at Cardiff University took a bold step toward understanding the quantum nature of gravity by setting new limits on the existence of very high-frequency gravitational waves. …
