For over a century, scientists have been intrigued to decode the perplexing scenery behind contemporary physics. It's been up for many years, and yet the experts still have no idea how to bridge the ...

Gravitational physics has become a truly experimental science as tests of the special and general theories of relativity reach new levels of precision Right on time When I was a first-term graduate ...

Physicists have demonstrated with unprecedented accuracy that the speed of light remains constant. In 1887, a landmark physics experiment was carried out by American researchers Michelson and Morley.

Rogue black holes kicked from their galactic lairs are among the surprising predictions made by physicists using powerful computers to solve Einstein's equations of general relativity. David Appell ...

First of all, the prevailing quantum theory, quantum field theory, is fully relativistic from the onset. Relativity is “built into” the theory, so to speak. And it’s the only quantum theory that is ...
