One hundred years ago this Wednesday, Albert Einstein gave the last of a series of presentations to the Prussian Academy of Sciences, which marks the official completion of his General Theory of ...
Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity has been wildly successful at describing how gravity works and how it shapes the large-scale structure of the universe. It’s summed up in a saying by the ...
The geometry of spacetime forms the very foundation of modern gravitational theory, where the elegant interplay between curvature and matter is described by Einstein’s field equations. In this ...

A positive-energy warp bubble moves the warp-drive debate into engineering
“This study changes the conversation about warp drives,” pronounced Dr. Jared Fuchs, as a transition between science-fiction ...
A century ago, Albert Einstein became famous. Sure, he was already well-known among physicists. But the world at large learned his name only after November 1919, when news broke that his theory of ...

How gravity sculpts the universe from Einstein to cosmic magnifying lenses
From the fall of an apple to the glow of the farthest known star, gravity quietly choreographs almost everything that happens ...
In 1915, Albert Einstein published the Theory of General Relativity, revolutionizing our perception of the universe. In the theory, space and time are a fabric, permeating even the furthest reaches of ...
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 ...
It stands among the most famous theories ever created, but the general theory of relativity did not spring into being with a single, astonishing paper like the special theory of relativity in 1905.
