A laboratory for relativity.
Abstract
The 1993 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to R. A. Hulse and J. H. Taylor for the "discovery of a new type of pulsar, a discovery that has opened up new possibilities for the study of gravitation". In subsequent work, general relativity passed new, strong-field tests with complete success.
