From unifying quantum physics and gravity to working out what is dark matter, the universe has some deep questions that ...

In new research, a physicist describes a “shell singularity,” where gravity applies without mass. Today’s theories for dark matter include many sizes and types for different situations.

Approximately 13.8 billion years ago, the universe originated from a singularity, swiftly expanding and cooling to create the ...

New quantum computing research reveals that black holes may not have chaotic singularities but structured quantum states, ...

Thus, naked singularities, if they exist, provide a unique opportunity to probe the quantum gravity near the singularity and other extreme aspects of physics in its surrounding region.

At the center of every black hole is a point of infinite density, called a singularity. It's what gives black holes their strong gravitational pull. And for decades, scientists thought ...

Black holes are points in space that are so dense they create deep gravity sinks. Beyond a certain region, not even light can escape the powerful tug of a black hole's gravity. And anything that ...

If you've got a naked singularity, well the laws of physics don't apply, anything could happen at any given moment, you know, player pianos could come shooting out of that thing, giant gravity ...
