Black hole singularities should not exist, according to theories of quantum mechanics. New tweaks to Einstein's equations of general relativity could finally do away with them, and explain what truly ...

"The singularity is the most mysterious and problematic part of a black hole. It's where our concepts of space and time ...

If gravity arises from entropy, scientists could unite Einstein's general relativity with the quantum realm while shedding ...

The first direct visual evidence of the supermassive black hole in the centre of Messier 87 and its shadow. Event Horizon ...

For decades, astronomers have relied on Einstein’s theory of relativity to explain the expansion of the universe, assuming ...

Albert Einstein shook up physics by proposing that light wasn’t just a wave, but it could also behave like a collection of ...

The relationship between quantum mechanics and classical physics has baffled scientists for decades. In the quantum world, ...

Looks like we’re closer than ever to connecting general relativity and quantum mechanics. A new study suggests that when we ...

"Different approaches to quantum gravity will place different importance on different terms in the equations, but they all suggest that Einstein's equations need to be refined." By incorporating ...
