To mark the centennial of Albert Einstein's breakthrough year of 1905, during which he published his theories of special relativity, the photoelectric effect and molecular motion, the UC Davis ...

Delivering the Badash Lecture, historian Matthew Stanley discusses the post-war healing effect of Einstein’s theory of general relativity Albert Einstein’s ascent to worldwide celebrity was, in large ...

According to Newtonian physics, the gravitational attraction between two masses is proportional to the inverse of the square ...

Textbooks give strange, imprecise explanations of where things happen in quantum mechanics. Consistency with gravity needs a fresh approach.

BOULDER- Black holes, time travel and E= mc^2. They are all related to Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity. How many of us, though, can actually explain any of it? This year, Einstein's theory ...

Einstein’s general theory of relativity can be summed up in just 12 words: “Space-time tells matter how to move; matter tells space-time how to curve”. But this short description from the physicist ...

For the first time, a mathematical framework proves that Einstein’s theory of general relativity, which explains the relationship between space, time, and gravity, is in alignment with quantum physics ...

Theoretical physicists have proposed a potential solution to one of the most puzzling problems in modern physics: the black hole singularity paradox. By modifying Einstein's theory of general ...

Almost a century ago, a solar eclipse revealed the geometry of spacetime. Now, physicists and amateur astronomers — armed with do-it-yourself gear — are going to double check that math during the Aug.

According to Einstein's theory of general relativity, gravity results from how mass warps space and time. The greater an object's mass, the stronger its gravitational pull. Scientists have largely ...
