It is now thought that the source of this anomaly was a phase transition in which one mineral’s structure was altered.

The reason for this is that everybody approaches the topic with a different angle and it becomes very hard to figure out who is correct but speaking in an obscure language and who is incorrect but ...

What is gravity without mass? Both Newton's revolutionary laws describing its universal effect and Einstein's proposal of a dimpled spacetime, we've thought of gravity as exclusively within the domain ...

I've been trying to explain quantum physics, forces, relativity, and space-time to my kid and we had a question that I'm finding difficult to find a solid answer to. Background you can skip if you ...

Researchers claim sound waves do carry mass – gravitational mass. This implies that a sound wave not only is affected by gravity but also generates a tiny gravitational field. Our findings are valid ...

Researchers looking through data from NASA and the German Aerospace Center (DLR)'s Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment ...

New findings suggest that ordinary sound has negative gravitational mass. This is an Inside Science story. (Inside Science) -- The sound of a sonic boom may produce about the same magnitude of ...

"GW250114 is the loudest gravitational wave event we have detected to date; it was like a whisper becoming a shout." ...

The Hubble Space Telescope has been used to determine the mass of white dwarf star LAWD 37. It is "56 percent the mass of our ...

Astrophysicists have measured the recoil resulting from the birth of a new black hole that formed from the merger of two ...

In everyday conversation, and even on our site, we treat the terms mass and weight like synonyms. But scientifically, the two are related but very separate. The mass of an object is an intrinsic ...
