Astronomers have made a groundbreaking discovery of a ‘dark object’ concealed within a warped ‘Einstein ring’ located 10 billion light-years away. This significant finding advances our understanding ...

In a landmark achievement, astronomers have noticed light bending in an unexpected manner, one that doesn’t align with the predictions made by Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity. This ...

The discovery in 1998 that the Universe is expanding faster over time shook the foundations of cosmology. This finding challenged deep-seated assumptions about how space behaves on the grandest scales ...

An international team, spearheaded by Prof. Luciano Rezzolla at the Goethe-Universität, has invented a novel approach to ...

Researchers have unveiled a new model for the universe’s birth that replaces cosmic inflation with gravitational waves as the driving force behind creation. Their simulations show that gravity and ...

One hundred years after Albert Einstein proposed his theory of general relativity, a theoretical physicist, Erik Verlinde from the University of Amsterdam, proposes a revision, suggesting that gravity ...

In October 2015, a young mathematician named Clemens Sämann was flying home to Austria from a conference in Turin, Italy, when he had a chance encounter. He found himself seated beside Michael ...

Today's cutting-edge theory—quantum gravity—suggests that even space and time aren't fundamental. They emerge from something deeper: pure information. This information exists in what physicists call a ...
