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

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

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

Time travel has shifted from pure fantasy to a serious, if highly constrained, topic in modern physics. The equations that describe gravity, quantum fields and the structure of spacetime now allow ...

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

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

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 ...

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 ...
