Earlier this year, new research suggested a potential solution to one of the most troubling aspects of modern physics — that ...

Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity is based on the idea that massive objects cause a distortion in space-time, which is felt as gravity ...

From four-dimensional hexagons to the mind-bending amplituhedron, geometrical shapes are wilder than we learn at school - and ...

Albert Einstein. The theoretical physicist published his theory of general relativity in 1919. Lucien Aigner/The Image Bank Unreleased. In their study, the researchers used data from the Dark ...

The general theory of relativity, Einstein asserted, was now complete. The month leading up to the historic announcement had been the most intellectually intense and anxiety-ridden span of his life.
