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 ...

Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity—which explains gravity as the product of the distortion of space and time—may not be universally applicable. This is the conclusion of physicists from ...

“A theory that coherently describes all fundamental forces of nature is often called the Theory of Everything,” Aalto University postdoctoral researcher Mikko Partanen said. It has been the physicists ...

Physicists have measured Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity, or more specifically, the effect called time dilation, at the smallest scale ever, showing that two tiny atomic clocks, ...

When the first-ever image of a black hole was released in April 2019, it marked a powerful confirmation of Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, or general relativity. The theory not only describes the ...

In another verification of the validity of Einstein's theory of general relativity scientists have used two finely tuned optical lattice clocks to make new ultra-precise measurements of the time ...

The MICROSCOPE mission tested the weak equivalence principle with free-falling objects in a satellite. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it ...

Valerio Faraoni receives funding from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada. Andrea Giusti received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation ...

A new recipe for gravity could help solve some of the universe's greatest mysteries. It suggests that the concept of "quantum ...

If gravity arises from entropy, scientists could unite Einstein's general relativity with the quantum realm while shedding light on dark matter and dark energy. A new recipe for gravity could help ...
