Machine learning helped show how harnessing the weird effects of Einstein’s special relativity could enable a new kind of ...

When an object moves extremely fast—close to the speed of light—certain basic assumptions that we take for granted no longer ...

Physics tries to capture all of those rules and express them in mathematical ... That's baked into special relativity. And it isn't just some speed limit posted on the highway.

More specifically, the team operating the LHC's Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector wanted to know if one of the rules upon which special relativity is built, called "Lorentz symmetry," always ...

Here are a few thought experiments that demonstrate some of Einstein's most groundbreaking discoveries, including his special and general theories of relativity. What would happen if you chased a ...

IN an attempt to treat gravitational and electromagnetic phenomena simultaneously within the framework of the special theory of relativity, it has been suggested 1 that the Maxwell-Lorentz ...

Ten years before general relativity, Einstein came up with special relativity, which explained the relationship between space and time – and how they are related to each other. 'Special' means ...
