BOULDER- Black holes, time travel and E= mc^2. They are all related to Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity. How many of us, though, can actually explain any of it? This year, Einstein's theory ...

This temporal lag is a direct consequence of Albert Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity. The rule is simple: the weaker ...

New research has uncovered an unexpected flaw in Einstein’s theory of relativity — a gap that no one had the tools to detect ...

There are few scientific concepts that are as famous as Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity, but even the iconic theory isn't set in stone. Einstein's theory of general relativity states ...

Einstein's theory of general relativity, published in 1916, built upon his earlier work, including special relativity and the mass-energy equivalence, both published in his "Annus Mirabilis" in 1905.

One hundred years after Albert Einstein proposed his theory of general relativity, a theoretical physicist, Erik Verlinde from the University of Amsterdam, proposes a revision, suggesting that gravity ...

More than 100 years after Albert Einstein published his iconic general theory of relativity, it is beginning to fray at the edges, said Andrea Ghez, UCLA professor of physics and astronomy. Now, in ...

Learn how Albert Einstein’s theory reveals that time on Mars runs faster than on Earth — and why that tiny shift matters for ...

Solar eclipses occasion lots of excitement and pique the public's interest in astronomical phenomena. Eclipses can also expand our understanding of the universe in profound ways. In fact, astronomical ...

Journal for General Philosophy of Science / Zeitschrift für allgemeine Wissenschaftstheorie, Vol. 50, No. 1 (March 2019), pp. 13-27 (15 pages) In a way similar to classical mechanics where we have the ...

Of course, in science, you’re only as good as your last successful calculation and that means that scientists are constantly working out new ways to test Einstein’s ideas. Astronomers have recently ...

Albert Einstein had described the special theory of relativity in 1905. The result of Einstein's thinking about light, this theory introduced brand-new ideas to science. It opened up an entire field ...
