Large masses – such as a galaxy – curve space-time. Objects move along a geodesic. If we take into account that space-time itself has quantum properties, deviations arise (dashed line vs. solid line).
Physicists have long struggled to unite quantum mechanics—the theory governing tiny particles—with Einstein’s theory of gravity, which explains the behavior of stars, planets, and the structure of the ...
The study of black holes has long been at the forefront of gravitational physics, and recent advances have significantly enriched our understanding of these enigmatic objects within the framework of ...
