A straightforward math tweak could bring tachyon fields into line with the rest of physics. Tachyons are faster-than-light particles, and tachyon fields are special cases of quantum field. The math ...

Is there a time of day or night at which nature's heaviest elementary particle stops obeying Einstein's rules? The answer to that question, as bizarre as it seems, could tell scientists something very ...

(Nanowerk News) Albert Einstein, one of the most celebrated modern scientists, proposed the revolutionary theory of special relativity over a century ago. This theory forms the basis of most of what ...

MR. LANDSBERG‘S letter, in that it derives a general transformation of which the Lorentz transformation is a special case, is doubtless of importance mathematically. It seems to me to have ...

Physicists have developed a promising new way to identify a possible abnormality in a fundamental building block of Einstein's theory of relativity known as "Lorentz invariance." If confirmed, the ...

The ticktock of two ultraprecise clocks has proven Einstein right, once again. A pair of atomic clocks made of single ions of ytterbium kept pace with one another over six months, scientists report ...
