For those who watch gravitational waves roll in from the universe, GW250114 is a big one. It's the clearest gravitational wave signal from a binary black hole merger to date, and it gives researchers ...
© H. Pfeiffer, A. Buonanno (Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics), K. Mitman (Cornell University) A year ago, almost to the day, the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA ...
The curious minds at What If examine overwriting Einstein’s theory of relativity with time travel, imagining paradoxes, causality, and cosmic consequences. Donald Trump approval rating shifts with low ...
A new theory suggests that gravity could possibly be the result of entropy. If true, this would mean that everything in the universe would fall apart if it all remained unchanged. This theory tries to ...
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 apply ...
110 years ago today, Albert Einstein published his General Theory of Relativity, which redefined the relationship between matter and gravity. Suddenly, our mysterious universe made a little more sense ...
The earliest test of Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity took place just four years after he published it. During the May 29, 1919, total solar eclipse, British astronomer Sir Arthur ...
Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. A new study shows how future high-resolution black hole images could test gravity at its limits and reveal whether Einstein’s ...
The U.S. stock market continues to absorb its knocks, whether geopolitical, credit-linked or trade-induced, and sits at record highs. Any dips continue to be bought as investors bet on lower interest ...
How stocks perform in relation to others is important when crafting a portfolio. The U.S. stock market continues to absorb its knocks, whether geopolitical, credit-linked or trade-induced, and sits at ...
In Interstellar, Miller’s planet orbits close to the black hole Gargantua, where gravity is so strong that time runs much slower. This is gravitational time dilation, a prediction of Einstein’s ...
