In this last part of our series on recently digitized books from the Wenner Collection, we are focusing on works that ...

Quantum mechanics and relativity are the two pillars of modern physics. However, for over a century, their treatment of space ...

For over a century, quantum mechanics and Einstein’s general relativity have stood as the cornerstones of modern physics, yet their unification remains one of science’s greatest challenges. Now, ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

The rapid acceleration of the universe’s expansion continues to challenge our understanding of fundamental physics. Why the ...

Einstein’s claim that the speed of light is constant has survived more than a century of scrutiny—but scientists are still ...

For more than a century, gravity has been the stubborn outlier in physics, resisting every attempt to merge Einstein’s smooth space-time with the jittery world of quantum mechanics. A new wave of ...

The theory of relativity describes two connected scientific theories developed by the physicist Albert Einstein: special relativity and general relativity. Collectively, relativity is the idea the ...

Teaching relativity to a dog may sound like a hopeless mental exercise, but physics professor Chad Orzel says it actually makes the job of teaching relativity to humans easier. "It makes the whole ...
