For those who watch gravitational waves roll in from the universe, GW250114 is a big one. It's the clearest gravitational ...

Mind = blown.

For more than a century, Einstein’s relativity has set a hard speed limit for the universe, with light as the ultimate ...

An international team led by Japanese researchers has made a 3D map of 3000 galaxies 13 billion light years from Earth, and found that Einstein’s general theory of relativity is still valid. Since it ...

Albert Einstein won the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics, but not for relativity—the theory that made him famous. This article ...

Quantum Gravity and General Relativity represent two foundational yet traditionally disparate pillars of modern physics. General Relativity, Einstein’s seminal theory, elegantly encapsulates ...

General Relativity, Einstein’s revolutionary theory of gravity, reinterprets gravitational interactions as phenomena emerging from the curvature of spacetime rather than as forces in the traditional ...

A straightforward math tweak could bring tachyon fields into line with the rest of physics. Tachyons are faster-than-light particles, and tachyon fields are special cases of quantum field. The math ...

Our understanding of the universe may be completely wrong.

There’s an adage coined by [Ian Betteridge] that any headline ending in a question mark can be answered by the word “No”. However, Lorentz invariance – the theory that the same rules of physics ...

Research teams on both sides of the Atlantic have shown that precise modeling of the universe and its contents will change the detailed understanding of the evolution of the universe and the growth of ...
