Oerlikon Leybold Vacuum technology helps to prove part of Einstein’s theory of relativity

Oerlikon Leybold Vacuum’s technology has been used to help scientifically prove the existence of gravitational waves, as originally speculated in Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity.

The vacuum and measuring equipment, manufactured by the German corporation, has provided an important contribution to this discovery: that gravity is created because mass causes a curvature of spacetime.

The tiny waves, moving at the speed of light, have been discovered by the GEO 600 – a gravitational wave detector designed by the Cologne-based company.
