Black hole singularities defy physics. New research could finally do away with them.
Black hole singularities defy the laws of physics. New research presents a bold solution to this puzzle: Black holes may actually be a theoretical type of star called a 'gravastar,' filled with universe-expanding dark energy.
Scientists discover bizarre region around black holes that proves Einstein right yet again
Einstein's general theory of relativity predicted that so-called 'plunging regions' around black holes would accelerate matter into them at the speed of light. Now, X-ray observations of a remote black hole have proved him right.
Newfound 'glitch' in Einstein's relativity could rewrite the rules of the universe, study suggests
Einstein's theory of general relativity is our best description of the universe at large scales, but a new observation that reports a "glitch" in gravity around ancient structures could force it to be modified.
Tweak to Schrödinger's cat equation could unite Einstein's relativity and quantum mechanics, study hints
Physicists have proposed modifications to the infamous Schrödinger's cat paradox that could help explain why quantum particles can exist in more than one state simultaneously, while large objects (like the universe) seemingly cannot.
Explosive black hole flare from the center of our galaxy reconstructed from 'a single flickering pixel' using AI and Einstein's equations
An explosive flare from the Milky Way's central black hole has been translated from 'a single flickering pixel' into a detailed 3D model using AI and Einstein's general relativity equations.
How do lasers work?
First predicted by Einstein more than a century ago, lasers have shaped our modern technological landscape. But how do they work?
What is quantum computing?
Reference Quantum computing opens the door to ultra-powerful machines that can perform calculations that would take supercomputers millions of years.
Albert Einstein: Biography, facts and impact on science
A brief biography of Albert Einstein (March 14, 1879 - April 18, 1955), the scientist whose theories changed the way we think about the universe.
8 ways you can see Einstein's theory of relativity in real life
Reference Relativity is one of the most famous scientific theories of the 20th century, but how well does it explain the things we see in our daily lives?
Einstein's predictions mean rare 'gravitational lasers' could exist throughout the universe, new paper claims
A new study combining two of Albert Einstein's famous predictions suggests that ripples in space-time can combine into 'gravitational lasers', firing out of black holes in random directions across the cosmos.
