The Latest Breaking News from Albert Einstein

In November 1924, French physicist Louis de Broglie presented his revolutionary theory that has become one of the cornerstones of quantum physics.

The Nobel Prize is one of the most prestigious awards in the world, honoring groundbreaking achievements in physics, chemistry, medicine, literature and efforts for peace. Over the years, it has been awarded to some of the greatest minds and most influential figures in history—but not everyone who is deserving has…

A map of the universe in gravitational waves could reveal "hidden" black holes, supermassive black hole collisions, and the large-scale structure of the cosmos.

Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, general relativity, is famously incomplete. As proven by physics Nobel laureate Roger Penrose, when matter collapses under its own gravitational pull, the result is a “singularity” – a point of infinite density or curvature.

This week marks the centenary of the French physicist Louis de Broglie’s doctoral thesis, which later earned him a Nobel prize for “his discovery of the wave nature of electrons”. This discovery constitutes a central aspect of quantum mechanics, and it led to his famous “pilot wave” theory, which provides…

The James Webb Space Telescope may have broken another of its own records, finding potentially five of the earliest and most distant galaxies ever seen.

The James Webb Space Telescope has identified the first-ever "Einstein zig-zag," a distant quasar lensed six times by two precisely aligned galaxies that could help tackle a cosmological crisis.

Does light behave more like a particle, or like a wave? Today we know the surprising answer. Here's why it took so long to get there.

The first year of data from the 5,000 robotic eyes of DESI shows Einstein's theory of general relativity is the right recipe for gravity despite the challenges of dark energy and dark matter.

The largest survey of our universe ever conducted suggests that it closely matches the model most favored by cosmologists. It's unclear what this means for alternative theories attempting to explain bizarre discrepancies.
