There are new hints that the fabric of space-time may be made of "memory cells" that record the whole history of the universe ...
Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity—which explains gravity as the product of the distortion of space and time—may not be universally applicable. This is the conclusion of physicists ...
The groundbreaking paper, titled “On the Same Origin of Quantum Physics and General Relativity from Riemannian Geometry and Planck Scale Formalism“ (was authored by Chavis Srichan of Khon Kaen ...
And, as physicist Stephen Hawking pointed out in his book " Black Holes and Baby Universes" (Bantam, 1994), "The best evidence we have that time travel is not possible, and never will be, is that ...
It’s summed up in a saying by the physicist John Wheeler: “Space-time tells matter how to move; matter tells space-time how to curve.” Yet the mathematics of general relativity is also profoundly ...
However, all attempts to blend general relativity and quantum physics necessarily introduce deviations from Einstein's theory. Therefore, Einstein's gravity cannot be the ultimate theory of gravity.
After all, general relativity has a good track record of theoretically predicting aspects of the universe well before they are discovered including black holes, gravitational waves, and the ...
The relativity trap suggests that most people will opt for the regular burger, perceiving it to be the best value or price relative to the quality of the burger.
Inside this three-book box set, you’ll find the basic principles of Newtonian physics through more complex topics such as general relativity, quantum mechanics, and beyond.
Later in his career, Baumgarte ended up addressing this gap. In 2010, he and Shapiro copublished a book that he would have been happy to read when he was just starting out. Numerical Relativity: ...
Einstein presented his general theory of relativity at the end of 1915 in a series of lectures in Berlin. But it wasn’t until a solar eclipse in 1919 that everyone took notice.
