For decades, physicists have faced one of science’s greatest puzzles: merging quantum mechanics, which describes tiny ...

At cosmological scales, Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity has given scientists an immensely accurate blueprint ...

The Theory of General Relativity, Einstein's description of gravity, explained the motions of everything we see in the universe. One of Einstein's key insights is that matter warps space and time, ...

"This work is a step toward understanding how quantum mechanics and gravity work together, a major unsolved problem in ...

THE appearance of a connected account of the Principle of Relativity in our own language will be welcomed by many as an opportunity of acquainting themselves in more detail with the ins and outs ...

In this video, we break down the theory of general relativity, revealing how mass and energy bend the fabric of space and time. Discover how this groundbreaking theory explains everything from the way ...

The general theory of relativity, Einstein asserted, was now complete. The month leading up to the historic announcement had been the most intellectually intense and anxiety-ridden span of his life.

A team of scientists is proposing a bold alternative to the Big Bang theory, suggesting that our universe may have formed ...

Time Dilation. The latest test of Einstein's theory of relativity, published in September 2010 in Science, looks specifically at time dilation, a piece of the theory that predicts that two ...

SINCE the relativity theory can be adequately interpreted in the space of Lobachevsky1, may I be permitted to say a few words in connexion with a communication of Sir James Jeans2.
