It is with great sadness that we learned of the passing of Antonino Zichichi. A pioneer of CERN’s experimental programme in the 1950s and the driving force behind numerous experiments, he was one of the most influential figures in high-energy physics. Our thoughts are with his family and friends.

Einstein’s theory passes another test — and black holes reveal new secrets. The latest LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA results uncover rare, fast-spinning mergers that may be second-generation black holes, born from earlier cosmic encounters. 💫 Image: Carl Knox, OzGrav #EinsteinTelescope #GravitationalWaves

An artistic visualisation of two black holes merging in deep space. The smaller black hole orbits and spirals into the larger one, surrounded by a glowing orange and red accretion disk, releasing intense energy and gravitational waves across the dark cosmic background.
