... a big bang, scientists use a model known as lambda CDM (or ΛCDM). The symbol for Lambda Λ refers to Albert Einstein’s cosmological constant which describes the energy density of space – a characteristic that we now associate with dark energy...
... from his colleague Michael Kramer also from the ERC, said Moedas. Predicted almost a century ago by Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity, black holes power some of the most extreme phenomena in the Universe and yet...
... energy ideas are now getting too convoluted, and that a much simpler explanation, one that even Einstein considered, should now be given serious consideration; a change in the speed of light, or VSL (Varying Speed of Light) as others...
... got within 100 AU (astronomical units) of Sgr A*, giving astronomers the chance to test relativistic effects predicted by Einstein’s equations (the test worked and S2 behaved exactly as relativity predicted). But other than that, reports of feverish...
...the gravity of a foreground object causes space-time to bend, magnifying something behind it. The phenomena was predicted by Einstein and it has become a popular method by astronomers to detect distant objects that emit little light. In this instance...
... around each other. These are the type that allowed scientists to detect theorised gravitational waves predicted by Einstein over a century ago when two were spotted merging together. Stellar mass black holes form from...
