Thanks to the Event Horion Telescope, we now know black holes exist, but a new study published recently in Physical Review D ...

“The one sentence statement of general relativity is that ‘gravity is the curvature of spacetime,’” explains Dr. Sean Carroll, assistant professor of physics at the University of Chicago. “Really, the ...

A LONG TIME ago, in a galaxy far, far away—somewhere in the general direction of the constellation of Leo—two black holes ...

The question of how gravity interacts with the quantum world has long perplexed physicists, but a non-quantum theory of space ...

It stands among the most famous theories ever created, but the general theory of relativity did not spring into being with a single, astonishing paper like the special theory of relativity in 1905.

A record-breaking gravitational wave signal let scientists "listen" to a distant black hole merger and put Einstein's gravity ...

This November, Einstein’s theory of general relativity will celebrate its 100th anniversary. Despite its advanced years, Einstein’s soon-to-be centenarian theory is holding up remarkably well. That’s ...

Answering some of the biggest questions in astrophysics—for example, about black holes and the origin of the universe—might require overhauling general relativity. In this artist’s illustration, ...
