'Dark Matter' Forms Ghost Universe That Mirrors Our Own, New Theory Shows
November 10, 2003 The "dark matter" that comprises a still-undetected one-quarter of the universe is not a uniform cosmic fog, says a University of California, Berkeley, astrophysicist, but instead forms dense ... > full story -
Einstein's Gravitational Waves May Set Speed Limit For Pulsar Spin
July 7, 2003 Gravitational radiation, ripples in the fabric of space predicted by Albert Einstein, may serve as a cosmic traffic enforcer, protecting reckless pulsars from spinning too fast and blowing apart, ... > full story -
Berkeley Lab Physicist Challenges Speed Of Gravity Claim
June 19, 2003 Albert Einstein may have been right that gravity travels at the same speed as light but, contrary to a claim made earlier this year, the theory has not yet been proven. A scientist at Lawrence ... > full story -
NASA Researchers Put New Spin On Einstein's Relativity Theory
April 10, 2003 Researchers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif., have discovered that entanglement is relative, depending on how fast an observer moves with respect to the particles, and that ... > full story -
NIST Helping Prepare An "Out Of This World" Atomic Clock
November 12, 2002 Setting the world's clocks from a timepiece far above the Earth someday may be the norm if the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)-led program to put an atomic clock aboard the ... > full story -
Gravity Waves Analysis Opens "Completely New Sense"
October 29, 2002 Sometime within the next two years, researchers will detect the first signals of gravity waves -- those weak blips from the far edges of the universe passing through our bodies every second. ... > full story -
International Team Of Scientists Attempts To Measure Speed Of Gravity
September 12, 2002 Ever since Albert Einstein proposed the general theory of relativity in 1916, physicists worldwide have tested the theory's underlying principles. While some principles - such as the speed of ... > full story -
New Insights Into Open String Theory
June 27, 2002 Theoretical physicist Lennaert Huiszoon has described a new family of strings in research conducted at the National Institute for Nuclear Physics and High Energy Physics. He investigated so-called ... > full story -
Was Einstein Wrong? Space Station Research May Find Out
May 30, 2002 Ultra-precise clocks on the International Space Station and other space missions may determine whether Albert Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity is correct and could dramatically change our ... > full story -
Los Alamos Researcher Says "Black Holes" Aren't Holes At All
April 23, 2002 Researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy's Los Alamos National Laboratory and the University of South Carolina have provided a hypothesis that "black holes" in space are not holes ... > full story
