In a paper published in the August 12 issue of the esteemed journal Physical Review Letters, researchers at the University of York made a monumental discovery, when they found that black holes tend to gulp up all the matter in their surroundings, but leak information.The new data adds to the growing database of knowl... |

According to the results of an interesting new analysis, it would appear that black hole may exist in a type of space-time-defined space that is independent of time itself. This type of environment, in which time is essentially frozen still, is called the Kerr spacetime.
The same study shows that this is the end s... |

A group of astronomers from the United Kingdom announces the development of a new research method that allows experts to take a closer look at the event horizon of black holes. This could help them gain more insight into the structure and development patterns governing these bodies.Black holes are inferred to exist t... |

A new theory proposes that the earliest Universe, which formed immediately after the Big Bang, expanded in the space around it in an extremely chaotic manner. This is not by far a new idea. It was proposed for the first time more than seven years ago, by Adilson E. Motter, who is a physics expert at the Northwestern ... |

In a new finding, experts have been able to demonstrate that Albert Einstein's theory on general relativity also works for very large scales. The discovery is extremely important, because it eats away at a competing theory about gravity, which seeks to do away with the need for concepts such as dark matter and d... |

When Albert Einstein proposed his now-famous Theory on General Relativity, the world of physics entered a frenzy that many say has yet to quell. The science that was proposed at the time suggested simple correlations, but in a way that carried tremendous implications for how our Universe is organized, and how it func... |

When it comes to explaining the world around us, there are two ways you can go about it. You can either explain how large bodies interact, as in everything from apples and humans to planets and galaxies, or determine the behavior of extremely small, elementary particles, such as photons and electrons. General relativ... |

When physicist Albert Einstein first developed his famous Theory of General Relativity (TGR), early in the 20th century, the physics world progressed considerably. The new-found knowledge eventually led to the creation of things such as the GPS network around the Earth, and helped astronomers explain space-time curva... |

Albert Einstein's famous theory of general relativity and the quantum mechanics theory are two of the most complete methods we have of explaining our surrounding realities. However, each of them only describes a part of the Universe, so an idea that would unify the two has been sought for over the last decades. ... |

The General Theory of Relativity, developed by the brilliant physicist Albert Einstein, has been at the forefront of modern physics, describing the way gravity, space and time interact. However, it does not account for the movement of elementary particle. The theory of quantum mechanics was devised around 1920, and e... |

Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity essentially united Isaac Newton's law of universal gravitation with his own theory of special relativity, thus explaining the properties of gravity through the geometry of space and time. He was the first to demonstrate that massive objects in the Universe, inc... |
