This quantum network also supported the teleportation experiment and established the record in the longest distance of the ...

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

For decades, scientists have speculated about the ultimate fate of the universe, from cosmic heat death to the eventual demise of celestial bodies. But a recent study from Radboud University in the ...

Narlikar’s main contribution was in modifying Einstein’s general relativity equations in a manner consistent with the creation of new matter in the universe.

Elusive black hole radiation predicted by Stephen Hawking may have influenced the way the universe took shape after the Big Bang, new research suggests.

Renowned astrophysicist Stephen Hawking made a remarkable discovery in 1974, about black holes and their boundaries called event horizons. He considered the spacetime curvature effects on the ...

In the 1970s, Stephen Hawking famously discovered that quantum effects near the event horizon should lead to the creation of particles out of the vacuum of space, a process known as Hawking radiation.

Hawking radiation has remained troubling and undetected for 50 years now for two possible reasons — first of all, most black holes might not emit this thermal radiation at all, and second, if ...

In 1974 Stephen Hawking famously claimed that black holes should emit particles as well as absorb them. This so-called "Hawking radiation" has not yet been observed, but now a research group from ...

According to LiveScience, in 1974, Hawking proposed that black holes eventually evaporate by losing what's now known as Hawking radiation- a gradual draining of energy in the form of light ...

Introduced by Stephen Hawking in 1976, this paradox basically says that black holes are doing something impossible: they’re destroying information. Astronomers, however, think they’ve finally ...
