Do top quarks, nature's heaviest elementary particle, obey Einstein's rules at all times of day and night? Scientists at the ...

We shall endeavour to do this for the Theory of Relativity, and to show that the whole ascent is composed of small, almost self-evident steps of thought. The entire development starts off from ...

For decades, movies and television series have sparked curiosity about the future, blending science with fiction in ways that ...

Einstein predicted that massive objects bend light as it passes through their gravitational field. This week, a new telescope ...

Traditional black holes, as predicted by Albert Einstein's theory of General Relativity, contain what are known as ...

A rare Einstein ring spotted near our galaxy offers a unique chance to test Einstein’s general relativity and study the warping of space-time.

Albert Einstein had described the special theory of relativity in 1905. The result of Einstein's thinking about light, this theory introduced brand-new ideas to science. It opened up an entire ...

For the first time, a mathematical framework proves that Einstein’s theory of general relativity, which explains the ...

Traditional black holes, as predicted by Albert Einstein's theory of General Relativity, contain what are known as singularities, i.e. points where the laws of physics break down. Identifying how ...

In the first study of its kind at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the CMS collaboration has tested whether top quarks adhere to Einstein's special theory of relativity. The research is published ...
