Cal State Fullerton physicist Geoffrey Lovelace is part of the CSUF faculty-student science team that contributed to the breakthrough discovery of gravitational waves, announced one year ago on Feb. 11, 2016 — a century after Einstein predicted their existence in his general theory of relativity. Lovelace and his team of student researchers developed computer simulations and visualizations to better predict the sources of gravitational waves, such as colliding black holes or a black hole tearing apart a neutron star. A second gravitational-wave detection was announced in June.
