Astronomers have detected strange "wobbles" in the light curve of a super bright supernova, hinting that a magnetar was born ...

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 ...

110 years ago today, Albert Einstein published his General Theory of Relativity, which redefined the relationship between matter and gravity. Suddenly, our mysterious universe made a little more sense ...

Addressing a controversy first raised around 1910, two physicists have performed experiments with the aid of an engineer that validate anew the special theory of relativity’s limitations on the speed ...

Researchers report superluminous supernova SN 2024afav whose erratic behavior supports a long-standing theory of stellar ...

The light did not fade the way it was supposed to. After blazing into view about a billion light-years from Earth, the ...

Astronomers have identified the first clear evidence of a magnetar forming during a superluminous supernova, offering new insight into some of the brightest explosions in the universe.

The findings confirm a theory first proposed 16 years ago by University of California, Berkeley theoretical astrophysicist ...

There’s an adage coined by [Ian Betteridge] that any headline ending in a question mark can be answered by the word “No”. However, Lorentz invariance – the theory that the same rules of physics apply ...

Quote of the day by Newton: 1915 changed physics forever. In that year, Albert Einstein published the general theory of relativity and reshaped our understanding of gravity and spacetime. For 228 ...
