Physicists have long treated space and time as the stage on which quantum particles perform, not as actors in the drama ...

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

A framework that relies on college-level mathematics could describe what happens to particles in so-called spacetime rips, gravity fluctuations such as those that occur during the birth of a black ...

The geometry of spacetime forms the very foundation of modern gravitational theory, where the elegant interplay between curvature and matter is described by Einstein’s field equations. In this ...

A straightforward math tweak could bring tachyon fields into line with the rest of physics. Tachyons are faster-than-light particles, and tachyon fields are special cases of quantum field. The math ...

The lecture will be held virtually. To inscribe into the learnweb course please send an e-mail to (heitger at uni-muenster dot de) or (raimar at math dot uni-muenster dot de). General Relativity: ...

General Relativity, Einstein’s seminal theory of gravitation, remains a pillar of modern physics by describing gravity as the curvature of spacetime. Nonetheless, persistent questions—ranging from the ...
