Hawking radiation, discovered by Stephen Hawking in 1974, is the process by which black holes emit subtle radiation and ...

Scientists believe that we could have black holes in our homes and not even realise it after studying the giant, destructive forces. Black holes are things that you wouldn’t want to get close to as ...

A new hypothesis called the “quantum memory matrix” could solve long-standing physics questions, including the Black Hole ...

Crucially, this bounce occurs entirely within the framework of general relativity, which applies on large scales such as ...

The Big Bang theory is wrong and the universe is sitting inside a black hole, scientists have suggested. Since the 1930s – when Belgian theoretical physicist Georges Lemaitre proposed the universe ...

Suppose the birth of the universe was not a definite start, but a cosmological rebound far within a black hole? This radical idea has been picking up steam as new theoretical research, spearheaded by ...

This result, extended by the late British physicist Stephen Hawking and others, underpins the idea that singularities – like the one at the Big Bang – are unavoidable. The idea helped win Penrose a ...

The idea helped win Penrose a share of the 2020 Nobel prize in physics and inspired Hawking's global bestseller "A Brief History of Time: From the Big Bang to Black Holes." But there's a caveat.

The Big Bang is often described as the explosive birth of the universe - a singular moment when space, time and matter sprang into existence. But what ...
