Learn how researchers used Einstein’s theory of general relativity to create the most accurate simulations to date.
Albert Einstein received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics for his contributions to theoretical physics and his discovery of ...
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 ...
We all know, or are aware of, Einstein's Theory of Relativity and of the difference between General Relativity and Special Relativity. I became aware of it as a child, although I didn't realize it at ...
This temporal lag is a direct consequence of Albert Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity. The rule is simple: the weaker ...
Solar eclipses occasion lots of excitement and pique the public's interest in astronomical phenomena. Eclipses can also expand our understanding of the universe in profound ways. In fact, astronomical ...
One hundred years after Albert Einstein proposed his theory of general relativity, a theoretical physicist, Erik Verlinde from the University of Amsterdam, proposes a revision, suggesting that gravity ...
More than 100 years after Albert Einstein published his iconic general theory of relativity, it is beginning to fray at the edges, said Andrea Ghez, UCLA professor of physics and astronomy. Now, in ...
If you're going to Mars you'd best take along a jar of anti-aging cream because while you're there you're going to age faster ...
Learn how Albert Einstein’s theory reveals that time on Mars runs faster than on Earth — and why that tiny shift matters for ...
Journal for General Philosophy of Science / Zeitschrift für allgemeine Wissenschaftstheorie, Vol. 50, No. 1 (March 2019), pp. 13-27 (15 pages) In a way similar to classical mechanics where we have the ...
Albert Einstein’s name is synonymous with “genius,” and his wild hair is a trope of its own for mad scientists and professors in popular culture. Einstein’s discoveries led to modern-day inventions ...
