Albert Einstein’s name has become shorthand for genius in theoretical physics. We tend to picture him scribbling equations ...

New observations of two black holes merging have confirmed predictions made decades ago by Albert Einstein, Stephen Hawking, ...

The world’s best clocks may be sensitive to an odd mix of quantum and relativistic effects that would stretch time and test ...

We often marvel at the genius of Albert Einstein, a physicist who revolutionized our understanding of the universe. Yet, even this formidable mind was perplexed by a grand scientific problem, one that ...

The findings resolve a long-standing problem in fundamental physics. Scientists at Hiroshima University have created a ...

Albert Einstein was ahead of his time. He revolutionized physics thinking, and his theory beginning with the breakout year of 1905, is still the basics of quantum physics today, over 100 years later.

There is no denying the awesome predictive power of Albert Einstein's 1915 theory of gravity, general relativity — yet, the theory still has inconsistencies when it comes to calculating its effect on ...

In the 1920s, Albert Einstein and one of his former students developed a way to keep food cold using heat. It was designed to ...

The measurement problem in quantum mechanics looks at how an experimental outcome changes, simply by observing it.

Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity has been remarkably successful in describing the gravity of stars and planets, but it doesn’t seem to apply perfectly on all scales. When you purchase ...
