A team of UBC physicists and engineers have designed an experiment featuring a trough of flowing water to help bolster a 35-year-old theory proposed by eminent physicist Stephen Hawking. In 1974, ...

Recent observations of gravitational waves from merging black holes have confirmed a theory proposed by physicist Stephen Hawking half a century ago. This breakthrough not only validates Hawking’s ...

In 1974 Stephen Hawking famously claimed that black holes should emit particles as well as absorb them. This so-called "Hawking radiation" has not yet been observed, but now a research group from ...

Quantum field theory (QFT) is a physics framework that describes how particles and forces behave based on principles rooted in quantum mechanics and Albert Einstein's special relativity theory. This ...

Scientists have found that the universe's decay rate is much faster than previously thought. A team of three scientists from Radboud University, Netherlands, calculated how long it would take for ...

Science aims to push the boundaries known to man, and that ideology is what took place from the recent study from the University of Amsterdam, in the Netherlands where they created a black hole in the ...

Black holes get bigger as they merge, the LIGO Collaboration confirmed with a new observation that could finally prove a decades-old Stephen Hawking theory. When you purchase through links on our site ...
