The universe’s accelerating expansion has long puzzled physicists. For decades, dark energy, an unseen force thought to make ...
Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity is currently our best approximation of how the universe ticks. But there are holes.
Scientists have determined a way to measure gravity on microscopic levels, perhaps bringing them closer to forming a theory of "quantum gravity" and to solving some major cosmic mysteries. Quantum ...
Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...
Scientific breakthroughs often stem from the persistent pursuit of understanding complex phenomena. From the nanoscale intricacies of molecular diffusion in advanced materials to the vast cosmic ...
Quantum Gravity and General Relativity represent two foundational yet traditionally disparate pillars of modern physics. General Relativity, Einstein’s seminal theory, elegantly encapsulates ...
A new test of Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity has proved the iconic physicist right again — this time by re-analyzing the famous first-ever picture of a black hole, which was released ...
An artist's visualization of the star S0-2 as it passes by the supermassive black hole at the galactic center. As the star gets closer to the supermassive black hole, it experiences a gravitational ...
