An eavesdropper hiding inside a black hole could still obtain information about quantum objects on its outside, a finding ...

A team of scientists has developed a recipe for black holes that eliminates one of the most troubling aspects of physics: the ...

In a study published March 11 in the scientific journal Physical Review Letters, two researchers applied quantum mechanics to ...

New research challenges our understanding of black holes, proposing they may not be cosmic dead ends after all.

Black hole singularities should not exist, according to theories of quantum mechanics. New tweaks to Einstein's equations of general relativity could finally do away with them, and explain what truly ...

New infrared observations of Sagittarius A* uncover flaring activity in its accretion disk, advancing knowledge of black ...

Quantum mechanics is used to propose that black hole singularities could be the start of a new phase, rather than a point of destruction.

Famed physicist Stephen Hawking took gravity to its ultimate limits. In doing so, he made a number of significant ...

Randomness is essential to some research, but it’s always been prohibitively complicated to achieve. Now, we can use ...

Most theories describe the singularity of black hole as a particularly brutal end, but a new study suggests this ...

Despite the bounce and subsequent expansion, nothing can leave the event horizon, so it expands into a new region of ...

I began graduate study in 1975, the midpoint of the first 100 years of quantum mechanics, 50 years ago and 50 years after the ...
