The study of relativistic effects in gravitational fields remains at the forefront of physics research, refining our comprehension of space‐time and its intricate interplay with matter. Notably, ...

Decades in the making, a space probe that delves into Albert Einstein's general theory of gravitation remains grounded on Earth, caught in its own space-time continuum of technical snags, costly ...

Researchers present the most precise test yet of the weak equivalence principle, a key component of the theory of general relativity. The report describes the final results from the MICROSCOPE mission ...
