Astronomers have identified the birth of a magnetar, a hyper-magnetized neutron star, by detecting a subtle warping of space-time predicted by Einstein’s general relativity. The discovery came from ...

A recent line of inquiry explores how atomic systems behave when immersed in curved spacetime, particularly under the influence of gravitational waves. In a new study, scientists show that ...

Researchers at The University of Alabama in Huntsville have proposed a mathematical framework for a warp drive that operates ...

From phone boxes and flux capacitors to black holes and hot tubs, sci-fi has created plenty of ways to explore the fourth ...

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.

Scientists worldwide respond to the publication of the three-volume monograph “Quantum Model of the Universe” #Physics ...

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - On March 14, 1879, physicist Albert Einstein was born in Germany. Einstein’s theories of relativity transformed how scientists understand space, time, and the universe. His ...

The discovery of a newborn magnetar inside a distant supernova helps explain why some stellar explosions shine far brighter ...

Some of the most extreme explosions in the universe are Type I superluminous supernovae. “They are one of the brightest ...

A new three-volume study explores how quantum physics, gravitation and cosmology may be understood within a unified ...

Astronomers have discovered a strange new signal coming from an exploding star — a “chirp” that speeds up over time, similar to the signals seen when black holes collide. The unusual pattern appeared ...
