On the eve of the recent major snowstorm, students, faculty, and staff gathered in the Nixon Lounge of Hawthorne-Longfellow Library to listen to Thomas W. Baumgarte, William R. Kenan Professor of ...

We’re often told it is “unscientific” or “meaningless” to ask what happened before the big bang. But a new paper by FQxI cosmologist Eugene Lim, of King's College London, UK, and astrophysicists Katy ...

Black holes, regions of spacetime in which gravity is so strong that nothing can escape, are intriguing and extensively ...

The student will develop and use numerical relativity simulations to investigate fundamental physics in strong gravity regimes. The goal is to understand the behaviour of non linearities around black ...

Asking what existed before the Big Bang is often dismissed as meaningless, since traditional physics breaks down when pushed that far back in time. Yet a new paper published in Living Reviews in ...

In cosmology, questions about conditions before the Big Bang are often dismissed as unscientific or unanswerable. However, a recent paper in Living Reviews in Relativity by Eugene Lim from King’s ...
