A theoretical study describes how gravitational field structures could change their connections, drawing on methods used in ...

More than a century after Einstein first devised the equations that describe gravity, physicists are still finding new ways of interpreting them. Luca Comisso, an associate research scientist in ...

Mathematicians have uncovered what they argue is a fundamental flaw in the standard model of the universe, potentially challenging the need for dark energy. Their calculations suggest that the ...

Researchers from UC Davis have proposed that dark energy may not be necessary to explain the universe's acceleration. They ...

Einstein’s equations suggest that gravity may be capable of a process resembling the one behind powerful solar explosions. In a new theoretical study, physicists show how gravitational field ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Numerical relativity may let scientists test early-universe ideas once considered beyond the reach of physics. (CREDIT: ...

Albert Einstein first predicted the existence of gravitational waves in 1916. Here's his original hand-written logic (on left), which the genius later converted into a typed manuscript (on right): ...

Throughout the years mathematicians and physicists have been finding various solutions to Einstein’s equations. These solutions have helped scientists better understand the nature of our cosmos, as ...

You see the same Einstein story almost every week about his biggest blunder: how his static universe failed. He wanted a static universe, added something to his equations to hold it still called the c ...

Proposed 15 years ago, the bounded L2 curvature conjecture has finally been proved by a group of three researchers at the Laboratoire Jacques-Louis Lions (CNRS / UPMC / Université Paris Diderot) and ...
