The gravitational constant describes the intrinsic strength of gravity, and can be used to calculate the gravitational pull between two objects. The gravitational pull between two objects can be ...

Gravity, one of the four fundamental forces of nature, appears reassuringly constant across the Universe, according to a decades-long study of a distant pulsar. This research helps to answer a ...

Researchers have redetermined the gravitational constant G using a new measurement technique. Although there is still a large degree of uncertainty regarding this value, the new method offers great ...

Newton's law of universal gravitation, which describes the attractive force between two masses separated by the distance, is one of the greatest achievements in the 17th century. The strength of this ...

In the quest to measure the fundamental constant that governs the strength of gravity, scientists are getting a wiggle on. Using a pair of meter-long, vibrating metal beams, scientists have made a new ...

The measurement of the Newtonian gravitational constant, G, remains one of the most challenging pursuits in experimental physics. A variety of techniques have been devised over the past two centuries, ...
