In addition, the study of gravitational waves may ultimately help scientists in their quest to solve some of the biggest problems in physics, such as the unification of forces, linking quantum theory with gravity.此外,对引力波的研究,或将最终有助于科学家探索解决物理学中最大的一些难题 - 例如各种...
Crazy-seeming research, every now and then, leads to something really, really wonder-filled. In this case, the discovery of something long-predicted (by Einstein) but seemingly impossible to perceive: gravity waves. (HT Maggie Lettvin)
By observing gravitational waves – ripples in the fabric of spacetime – arriving at our planet from a cataclysmic event in the far distant Universe, we have now made a mega leap in our understanding of the nature of gravity and ushered in a new and fascinating era of astronomy. Gravitationa...
GRAVITY WAVES Gravity waves have to do with fluid dynamics: the movement of liquids and gases. As an example, imagine an air mass being blown up and over a mountain range. Once over the mountains, that air mass will start to fall downwards again due to the force of gravity. ...
Einstein figured out the answer when he published his theory of general relativity. The reason gravity pulls you toward the ground is that all objects with mass, like our Earth, actually bend and curve the fabric of the universe, called spacetime. That curvature is what you feel as gravity....
Einstein predicted gravitational waves as part of his seminal theory of relativity, which explained gravity as distortions in both space and time caused by bodies of matter. LIGO’s three founders — Rainer Weiss, Kip Thorne and Ronald Drever, who dedicated much of their careers to gravitational ...
Einstein’s general theory of relativity explained the motion of planets and the bending of light from distant stars and galaxies, and predicted the existence ofblack holesand gravitational waves. These waves – ripples in space-time – weredetected directlyfor the first time in 2016, a century ...
Albert Einstein is often cited as one of the most influential scientists of the 20th century. His work continues to help astronomers study everything fromgravitational wavestoMercury's orbit. The scientist's equation that helped explainspecial relativity– E = mc^2 – is famous even among those...
Einstein proposed that light is composed of separate packets of energy, called -- quanta or photons -- that have some properties of particles and some properties of waves. He also explained the photoelectric effect, which is the emission of electrons from some solids when they're struck by lig...
