For over 100 years, two theories have shaped our understanding of the universe: quantum mechanics and Einstein’s general relativity. One explains the tiny world of particles; the other describes ...

A new physics paper proposes modifications to Einstein’s theory of relativity that could solve one of the biggest issues ...

The discovery in 1998 that the Universe is expanding faster over time shook the foundations of cosmology. This finding challenged deep-seated assumptions about how space behaves on the grandest scales ...

A peer-reviewed paper published in The European Physical Journal C presents a modification to Einstein’s general relativity ...

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 ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. A telescope image of warped yellow starlight forming a smily face against a black background Scientists could soon test Einstein's ...

Researchers have explored the interplay between gravitational effects and quantum interactions in optical atomic clocks, revealing more about quantum entanglement in precision timekeeping. For over a ...

Researchers at Osaka University demonstrate the relativistic contraction of an electric field produced by fast-moving charged particles, as predicted by Einstein’s theory, which can help improve ...

While the ΛCDM model has been a cornerstone of cosmology, it is showing its limitations as researchers seek to explain observations beyond its scope. (CREDIT: ESO/L. Calçada/spaceengine.org) The ...
