Quantum gravity and field theory represent a frontier where the principles of quantum mechanics are reconciled with Einstein’s description of gravity. Researchers are seeking a consistent framework ...
Legend has it that Isaac Newton had the moment of inspiration that would lead to his theory of gravity when, on a warm afternoon, he saw an apple fall from a tree and wondered why it should fall down ...
Gravity field modeling and geoid determination are critical tasks in geodesy and Earth sciences, providing insights into the Earth’s mass distribution and its gravitational potential. Researchers ...
Weight is the force acting on an object due to gravity - it has the unit newtons (N) and acts towards the centre of a gravitational field. So weight is a gravitational force on an object that has mass ...
The GRACE mission is a joint German-American project. The primary objective of the GRACE mission was to obtain accurate global models for the mean and time variable components of the earth´s gravity ...
It is now thought that the source of this anomaly was a phase transition in which one mineral’s structure was altered.
In the pursuit of finding anomalies that did not have connection to surface changes, researchers detected one that happened ...
As they whirl around in low-Earth orbit, satellite configurations are far more sensitive to changes in Earth's gravity field ...
NASA's GRACE satellite detected a large gravity anomaly over the Atlantic Ocean. Meanwhile, Earth-based observatories saw a ...
