Einstein’s theory of general relativity explains how gravity works. It says that massive objects like planets, stars, or galaxies bend the fabric of space and time around them, like a heavy ball ...

Several physicists have proposed theories that try to unite quantum mechanics with Einstein’s general theory of relativity. But a new study goes one step ahead; it not only links the two ...

"This discovery was partly serendipity! But, we believe there are many more such opportunities hidden in Hubble data." ...

Ever since the 1919 eclipse, Einstein's general theory of relativity has consistently held up, and largely been accepted, but the final proof didn’t come until much more recently when on ...

New tweaks to Einstein's equations of general relativity could finally do away with them, and explain what truly lies at the heart of a black hole. Comments (0) ...

By modifying the Schrödinger equation and introducing the concept of self-induced collapse, Carlesso’s team has paved the way for a deeper understanding of the universe’s evolution.

Albert Einstein rose to fame in 1905 after his theory of relativity transformed our understanding of space and time. Einstein was the first to confirm that "no object could travel faster than the ...

By modifying Einstein's theory of general relativity, the center of a black hole with infinite curvature could be replaced by a highly curved but regular region of space-time, the researchers ...
