For more than a century, gravity has been the stubborn outlier in physics, resisting every attempt to merge Einstein’s smooth ...

Aligarh, Dec. 29 -- day National Workshop titled"Introductory Workshop on General Relativity and Gravitation (IWGRG-2025)". Organized in collaboration with IUCAA, Pune, and supported by ANRF and CSIR.

A South Korean physicist has proposed a theoretical framework that could support the unification of quantum mechanics and the ...

110 years ago today, Albert Einstein published his General Theory of Relativity, which redefined the relationship between matter and gravity. Suddenly, our mysterious universe made a little more sense ...

As new and powerful telescopes gather fresh data about the universe, they reveal the limits of older theories like Einstein's relativity. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

Scientists say fragments of energy may be the fundamental building blocks of the universe—not particles and waves.

Surprising as it may sound, 107 years after the introduction of general relativity, the meanings of basic concepts are still being worked out. More than a century after Albert Einstein unveiled ...

In 1980, Stephen Hawking gave his first lecture as Lucasian Professor at the University of Cambridge. The lecture was called "Is the end in sight for theoretical physics?" Forty-five years later, ...

Strangely, although we feel as if we sweep through time on the knife-edge between the fixed past and the open future, that edge—the present—appears nowhere in the existing laws of physics. In Albert ...

When studying a complex system, scientists identify smaller pieces called subsystems that they can make sense of. By studying subsystems and the correlations between them, they reconstruct an ...
