DescriptionBBH gravitational lensing of gw150914.webm |
العربية: محاكاة ڤيديويَّة بِالحركة البطيئة لنظام الثقوب السوداء الثُنائي]] GW150914 كما يراه مراقِب مجاوِر، خلال آخر 0.33 ثانية من وجوده، حيث يندمج وينتهي.
English: Video simulation of the view which would be seen by a close observer, of the final merger of GW150914, showing the distortion of the star-field from gravity as the black holes orbit and merge.
Bahasa Indonesia: Simulasi video dari tampilan yang akan dilihat oleh pengamat dekat dari penggabungan akhir GW150914, menunjukkan distorsi bidang bintang dari gravitasi saat lubang hitam mengorbit dan bergabung.
Polski: Symulacja widoku, który widziałby znajdujący się blisko obserwator zdarzenia GW150914. Pokazane jest zniekształcenie czasoprzestrzeni spowodowane dwiema krążącymi wokół siebie czarnymi dziurami, które ostatecznie zderzają się i łączą.
Čeština: Videosimulace pohledu blízkého pozorovatele vesmírného objektu s označením GW150914, který umožnil první potvrzené pozemské sledování gravitačních vln - pohled na na vzájemné působení dvou blízkch černých děr, zakřivení prostoru v jejich blízkosti a konečně jejich vzájemné splynutí.
Македонски: Симулација на блиско набљудување на првозабележаните гравитациски бранови (GW150914) при заемодејството на две црни дупки.
Русский: Компьютерная симуляция слияния двух чёрных дыр, от которого впервые были зарегистрированы гравитационные волны |
