After Albert Einstein published his special theory of relativity in 1905, he spent the next decade trying to come up with a theory of gravity. But for years, he kept running up against a problem. He ...

For over 100 years, two theories have shaped our understanding of the universe: quantum mechanics and Einstein’s general relativity. One explains the tiny world of particles; the other describes ...
In October 2015, a young mathematician named Clemens Sämann was flying home to Austria from a conference in Turin, Italy, when he had a chance encounter. He found himself seated beside Michael ...

Theoretical physicists have proposed a potential solution to one of the most puzzling problems in modern physics: the black hole singularity paradox. By modifying Einstein's theory of general ...
Physicist Kent Yagi, an associate professor with the University of Virginia’s College and Graduate School of Arts & Sciences has won a CAREER grant from the National Science Foundation, one of the ...
To square Albert Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity with quantum mechanics requires some currently unknown physics, and that’s led some scientists to question if Einstein’s theory could use some ...
