Could reality be made of more dimensions than those we perceive? The question has consumed some of the most brilliant physics ...

New research suggests black holes may transition into 'white holes', ejecting matter and potentially even time back into the universe, defying our current understanding of these cosmic giants. New ...

Researchers are using black hole “shadow” images to test whether Einstein’s relativity remains unshakable. With ...

In October 2024 the network detected a clear signal that pointed back to a merger that occurred 700 million light-years away.

(via Sabine Hossenfelder) White holes are theoretical bodies in physics that are basically time-reversed black holes, meaning instead of permanently trapping matter inside themselves, they release it ...

When stars cease to fuse hydrogen at the end of their lifetime, they collapse in on themselves, condensing into a ...

Exploring the BTZ black hole in (2+1)-dimensional gravity took me down a fascinating rabbit hole, connecting ideas I never expected—like black holes and topological phases in quantum matter! When I ...

"This work is a step toward understanding how quantum mechanics and gravity work together, a major unsolved problem in physics." The first step toward quantum gravity, the "holy grail of physics," may ...

Black holes are considered cosmic gluttons, from which not even light can escape. That is also why the images of black holes ...

Some things in cosmology may simply be unknowable. Why is there something rather than nothing? What lies outside the universe? What is inside a black hole? That last one has been niggling at ...

OXFORD – University of Mississippi astrophysicist Anuradha Gupta has been selected among 15 recipients worldwide for the 2025 Simons Emmy Noether Fellowship. The fellowship, named for renowned ...
