Albert Einstein was well known for his thought experiments involving complex scientific ideas. Often he used real-world examples that helped non-scientists grasp his theories of relativity. He started ...

Einstein’s theory of general relativity has been challenged by a team of researchers having conducted a 16 year-long experiment. The theory, which Albert Einstein published in 1915, is the cornerstone ...

Decades in the making, a space probe that delves into Albert Einstein's general theory of gravitation remains grounded on Earth, caught in its own space-time continuum of technical snags, costly ...

Addressing a controversy first raised around 1910, two physicists have performed experiments with the aid of an engineer that validate anew the special theory of relativity’s limitations on the speed ...

According to Albert Einstein's theory of relativity from 1915, all bodies in a vacuum regardless of their properties are accelerated by the Earth's gravity at the same rate. Under the conditions of ...

Albert Einstein must be the most iconic figure in the scientific world. When we think of geniuses, Isaac Newton, Nikola Tesla ...

COLUMBIA, Mo. – Scientists have attempted to disprove Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity for the better part of a century. After testing and confirming Einstein’s prediction in 2002 that ...

A groundbreaking quantum experiment conducted by MIT physicists has turned a major page in the long-standing debate between Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr. Their recent work, published in Physical ...

Betting against Einstein and his theory of relativity is a way to go broke. For more than a century, everyone from physicists to the Nazi Party — which encouraged the publication of the tract "One ...
