Earlier this year, researchers discovered that photon-emitting atoms moving through a vacuum experienced a friction-like force never detected before. This was not just unexpected but it also ...

A new solution to Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity suggests hypothetical gravitational stars that look like black holes could be nested within one another. When you purchase through ...

New impressions A visualization of a curved space–time “sea” from the general-relativity simulations carried out by the authors.(Courtesy: James Mertens) From the Genesis story in the Old Testament to ...

Time travel has shifted from pure fantasy to a serious, if highly constrained, topic in modern physics. The equations that ...

The Einstein equations remain the cornerstone of general relativity, underpinning our understanding of how matter and energy influence spacetime curvature. Recent investigations have not only ...

Besides quantum mechanics, another interesting topic in physics is relativity. Let’s take a look at it! Of all the force fields, the gravitational field is the one man has known for the longest time.
