Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr had an ongoing rivalry about the true nature of quantum mechanics, and came up with a thought ...

A team of researchers at University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) has reconstructed one of Albert Einstein’s most ...

Albert Einstein was well known for his thought experiments involving complex scientific ideas. Often he used real-world examples that helped non-scientists grasp his theories of relativity. He started ...

Professor Pan and his team recreated Einstein's thought experiment to demonstrate how the quantum world actually works.

A century-old debate ends as physicists prove Einstein wrong using single photons to test quantum theory with unprecedented ...

Einstein doubted the core idea of complementarity by Niels Bohr. Bohr said quantum objects act like waves and particles.

Exceptionally precise' set-up mimics thought experiment devised by sceptical genius to disprove the then-emerging field For ...

The faster you move, the stranger time becomes. By imagining how light travels to two people moving at different speeds, Einstein showed that time isn’t absolute. His thought experiment revealed that ...

'No understanding of or interest in modern physics': Einstein (pictured) was criticised by Oppenheimer - Library of Congress/Corbis/VCG via Getty Images Viewers of Christopher Nolan’s Oscar-hoovering ...

To understand gravity, Einstein had to rethink space and time as a single connected fabric. He showed that mass bends this fabric, guiding how everything moves. NOVA is available to stream on pbs.org ...

Think about it. There may be no greater engine of transformation than the human brain. And throughout history, thought experiments have been the silent engines of intellectual progress, driving ...
