Black hole singularities should not exist, according to theories of quantum mechanics. New tweaks to Einstein's equations of general relativity could finally do away with them, and explain what truly ...

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 ...

Einstein's formula found that an object that has ... The cosmological constant is a term in Einstein's equations of General ...

If gravity arises from entropy, scientists could unite Einstein's general relativity with the quantum realm while shedding ...

Physics has a problem—their key models of quantum theory and the theory of relativity do not fit together. Now, Dr. Wolfgang Wieland from Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) is ...

After thinking about the problems for 10 years, he published the general theory of relativity. In it, he suggested that gravity is not a force, as Newton had believed, but the result of a ...

On 25 November 1915, Albert Einstein presented his general theory of relativity at the Prussian Academy of Sciences. This theory is still considered to be the most important idea in modern physics.

If gravity arises from entropy, scientists could unite Einstein's general relativity with the quantum realm while shedding light on dark matter and dark energy. A new recipe for gravity could help ...
