Glashow, Steven Wein-berg and Abdus Salam in the late 1960s. The second approach, which I consider more promising, is string theory--a truly revolutionary modification of Einstein's theory. This ...

Jeff Forshaw, a professor of particle physics at Britain's Manchester University, said the results, if confirmed, would mean it would be possible in theory “to send information into the past”. “In ...

For over 100 years, two theories have shaped our understanding of the universe: quantum mechanics and Einstein’s general relativity. One explains the tiny world of particles; the other describes ...

TOKYO -- A team of researchers from the University of Tokyo will test famed physicist Albert Einstein's theory that gravity affects time's passage in an experiment this month at Tokyo Skytree, the ...

Cosmic strings, high-energy remnants of the early Universe, may unlock time travel by warping space-time. These ...

In another verification of the validity of Einstein’s theory of general relativity, published in Nature Photonics, scientists from the RIKEN Center for Advanced Photonics and Cluster for Pioneering ...

On May 29, 1919, a total solar eclipse helped to prove Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity. Einstein's theory suggested that gravity could bend light by curving the fabric of spacetime. To ...
