In 1919, a total solar eclipse allowed scientists to confirm Einstein’s theory of general relativity by observing how the sun’s gravity bent starlight. This discovery revolutionized physics and made ...

Records from Albert Einstein's final years are being published as a book around 20 years after their discovery, as ...

At cosmological scales, Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity has given scientists an immensely accurate blueprint ...

Scientists propose using quantum-entangled clocks to test how gravity affects quantum mechanics in curved spacetime.

The imaginations of scientists and sci-fi lovers have just been stimulated with the news that a warp drive is being studied ...

A team of scientists compared Einstein's theory of general relativity with data from the Dark Energy Survey. They found a “slight discrepancy” in the behavior of gravity at different cosmic times.

Scientists demonstrate that quantum networks of clocks offer a new way to explore the interplay between quantum mechanics and curved space-time. Quantum networking is advancing rapidly across the ...

Einstein's theory of gravity—general relativity—has been very successful for more than a century. However, it has theoretical shortcomings. This is not surprising: the theory predicts its own ...

University of Adelaide applied mathematicians have extended Einstein’s theory of special relativity to work beyond the speed of light. Einstein’s theory holds that nothing could move faster ...

As 24-cent copies of Albert Einstein's abstruse "Coherent Field Theory" reached the U. S. last week, the man himself, his wife and a daughter plodded about Wannsee, simply hunting rooms at that ...
