Interstellar object 3I/ATLAS has seemingly confirmed Einstein's general relativity by exhibiting gravitational lensing as it neared the Sun. However, the observed light bending exceeded predictions by ...

Physicists have analyzed two enormous black hole mergers that happened one month apart and have come up with tantalizing ...

Spacetime itself would also need to be “quantized,” or broken down into constituent parts. This is what the notorious string theory attempts to do, as does loop quantum gravity, currently considered a ...

In the 1900s, Albert Einstein unified the concepts of space and time, giving us a useful new way to picture the universe. At the start of the 20th century, physicists had a problem: The speed of light ...

Saint Louis University — Madrid mathematics Professor Robert Monjo, Ph.D., recently led a study on the shape of Einstein's concept of spacetime now published in "General Relativity and Gravitation." ...

The image depicts an experiment in which heavy particles(illustrated as the moon), cause an interference pattern (a quantum effect), while also bendingspacetime. The ...

Einstein was a great thinker who made plenty of mistakes—errors that sometimes led to more meaningful discoveries in physics, ...

Amalie Emmy Noether—known as Emmy—is one of history’s greatest mathematicians. Her groundbreaking work, Noether’s theorem, serves as the foundation for today’s standard model of particle physics. Some ...

A Google Deep Mind researcher and physics expert, Adam Brown, discusses what an AI Einstein would be like. Einstein coming up with General Relativity required coming up with new notation. Einstein’s ...
