Researchers used the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument to map how nearly 6 million galaxies cluster across 11 billion years of cosmic history. Their observations line up with what Einstein's theory ...

Gravitational distortions produced by distant galaxies show a slight—but notable—disagreement with Einstein's predictions.

Once again, scientists proved Einstein's theory of general relativity is indeed correct using a Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI).

"Studying the rate at which galaxies formed lets us directly test our theories and, so far, we’re lining up with what general ...

An international team of astronomers confirmed that Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity holds true on cosmic ...

Among the keenest hopes is that it will help reveal the nature of dark matter, the mysterious invisible something responsible ...

An international research team's new calculations of the distortion of time and space presents new challenges to predictions ...

Among the researchers was an Indian team led by Shadab Alam from the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Mumbai.

The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) has made significant contributions to understanding the universe's structure ...

Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity—which explains gravity as the product of the distortion of space and time—may not be universally applicable. This is the conclusion of physicists ...

This text on general relativity and its modern applications is suitable for an intensive one-semester course on general relativity, at the level of a Ph.D. student in physics. Assuming knowledge of ...
