Throughout the years mathematicians and physicists have been finding various solutions to Einstein’s equations. These solutions have helped scientists better understand the nature of our cosmos, as ...

Some of the hardest questions in cosmology begin where the usual math gives up. Push Einstein’s theory far enough back toward ...

Why is the expansion of our Universe accelerating? Twenty-five years after its discovery, this phenomenon remains one of the greatest scientific mysteries. Solving it involves testing the fundamental ...

Proposed 15 years ago, the bounded L2 curvature conjecture has finally been proved by a group of three researchers at the Laboratoire Jacques-Louis Lions (CNRS / UPMC / Université Paris Diderot) and ...

Dark energy revived Einstein’s discarded cosmological constant and reshaped the leading model of the universe.

According to Einstein’s general relativity, nothing is ever seen crossing a black hole’s event horizon. From the outside, objects appear to slow down, redshift, and freeze in time before fading away.

From Quanta Magazine (find original story here). In November 1915, in a lecture before the Prussian Academy of Sciences, Albert Einstein described an idea that upended humanity’s view of the universe.

Proposed 15 years ago, the bounded L2 curvature conjecture has finally been proven by a group of researchers. It provides a potentially minimal framework in which it is possible to solve the Einstein ...
