Black hole singularities should not exist, according to theories of quantum mechanics. New tweaks to Einstein's equations of general relativity could finally do away with them, and explain what truly ...
A rare manuscript with notes made by Albert Einstein was auctioned for more than $13 million. They contain the early calculations that eventually became Einstein's general theory of relativity.
For those who watch gravitational waves roll in from the universe, GW250114 is a big one. It's the clearest gravitational ...
Physicists have proposed modifications to the infamous Schrödinger's cat paradox that could help explain why quantum particles can exist in more than one state simultaneously, while large objects ...
A century ago, Albert Einstein became famous. Sure, he was already well-known among physicists. But the world at large learned his name only after November 1919, when news broke that his theory of ...
It was co-written with his lifelong friend, the Swiss engineer Michele Besso. LONDON -- A rare manuscript by Albert Einstein that changed the course of modern science was just sold for over 13.3 ...
