Einstein’s claim that the speed of light is constant has survived more than a century of scrutiny—but scientists are still ...

Physicists in China have brought one of Einstein’s thought experiments into reality—but not quite with the outcome he hoped ...

Two landmark quantum experiments have sharpened one of the oldest arguments in modern physics, and the verdict is not kind to ...

Now, two unrelated-but-similar experiments confirm that, in a double-slit experiment, detection of a photon’s path (its ...

Albert Einstein's work in part led to the prediction of quantum entanglement: the idea that two particles can remain connected across vast distances of space and time. Einstein found the idea absurd ...

Scientists in China have performed an experiment first proposed by Albert Einstein almost a century ago when he sought to ...

A unified Theory Of Everything is the holy grail of physics, but gravity refuses to play ball. Now, a newly proposed theory attempts to unify Einstein’s theory of gravity with quantum mechanics – and ...

I have been popularizing quantum physics, my area of research, for many years now. The general public finds the topic fascinating and covers of books and magazines often draw on its mystery. A number ...

The pioneer of quantum computing talks about how Albert Einstein would have reacted to his experiments, the hype around the ...

Albert Einstein did not normally keep a diary, but he often wrote in travel notebooks. From 1921 to 1933 his itinerary included trips to New York, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malacca, Penong, Palestine, Rio ...

Andrew Robinson reviews Einstein: the Man and His Mind by Gary S Berger and Michael DiRuggiero Published to mark the Nobel prize’s centenary, the book is a lavishly produced and highly appealing ...
