Scientists are a step closer to solving one of the universe's biggest mysteries as new research finds evidence that two of ...

Astronomers have finally watched a black hole do something Albert Einstein only described on paper: twist the very fabric of ...

The rapid acceleration of the universe’s expansion continues to challenge our understanding of fundamental physics. Why the ...

A century after Albert Einstein sketched out his radical picture of gravity, astronomers have now watched a black hole ...

Contemporary physics has learned to describe the universe with unprecedented precision. Yet when it tries to say what time is, it stumbles again and ...

Engineers have found a way to shepherd microrobots with no wires, no radios, and no onboard computers. Instead, they steer them with light patterns designed using the same math physicists use to ...

In the mid-19th century, Bernhard Riemann conceived of a new way to think about mathematical spaces, providing the foundation ...

Black holes have long captured the imagination of both scientists and the general public. These exotic objects—once thought ...

Gravitational waves from black holes may soon reveal where dark matter is hiding. A new model shows how dark matter surrounding massive black holes leaves detectable fingerprints in the waves recorded ...
