The magnetic fields surrounding a young star have been detected for the first time.
This discovery confirms models of how such stars grow.
Theoretical models predict that the magnetic fields in a dusty disc surrounding a young star will slow the disc's rotation, and allow dust to fall onto the s...
Sound waves in a fluid behave uncannily like light waves in space. Black holes even have acoustic counterparts.
Could spacetime literally be a kind of fluid, like the ether of pre-Einsteinian physics?
When Albert Einstein proposed his special theory of relativity in 1905, he rejected the 1...
