Can we do away with the troublesome singularity at the heart of black holes? A new paper in JCAP reimagines these extreme objects in light of current knowledge. “Hic sunt leones,” remarks Stefano ...
Our first glimpses into the physics that exist near the center of a black hole are being made possible using 'loop quantum gravity'-- a theory that uses quantum mechanics to extend gravitational ...
For the first time, physicists have calculated exactly what kind of singularity lies at the center of a realistic black hole. In January 1916, Karl Schwarzschild, a German physicist who was stationed ...
