The findings resolve a long-standing problem in fundamental physics. Scientists at Hiroshima University have created a practical and highly sensitive method for detecting the Unruh effect, a ...

For scientists, learning more about how black holes behave is essential to understanding how the universe works. A recent ...

Max Planck is widely recognized as the father of quantum theory for his groundbreaking work on energy quanta. His initial ...

We often marvel at the genius of Albert Einstein, a physicist who revolutionized our understanding of the universe. Yet, even ...

Stephen Hawking's and Albert Einstein’s predictions have finally been proved right after a 'black hole collision'. In January this year, astronomers spotted two black holes colliding into one another ...

Everyone recognises Albert Einstein, but few realise just how deeply his ideas have shaped the world we live in. Over a hundred years ago, this German-born scientist turned the way we understand space ...

The second is a bit more nuanced. According to Hawking's area theorem, a black hole's area should only be able to increase ...

A recently discovered black hole merger is proving correct theoretical predictions made by Albert Einstein and Stephen ...

Astronomers detected in unprecedented detail a collision between two black holes. Their observations confirm predictions made ...

Einstein’s theory of special relativity tells us that for a moving object, time passes more slowly than for a stationary ...

Ten years ago, scientists heard the universe rumble for the first time. That first discovery of gravitational waves proved a ...
