According to Newtonian physics, the gravitational attraction between two masses is proportional to the inverse of the square ...

If the recent discovery of gravitational waves emanating from the early universe holds up under scrutiny, it will illuminate a connection between gravity and quantum mechanics and perhaps, in the ...

This larger gravitational force between two bodies relies on something called the gravitational constant that is used to calculate the relative gravitational force between two objects.

For example, take the team's research into Isaac Newton's inverse square law, which stipulates that the gravitational force between two objects is proportional to the square of the distance ...

The female mathematician who changed the course of physics—but couldn’t get a job (Emmy) Noether's Theorem may be the most important theoretical result in modern physics.

Researchers have redetermined the gravitational constant G using a new measurement technique. Although there is still a large degree of uncertainty regarding this value, the new method offers ...

Getting science stuff in a show is tough. But that doesn't give it license to be wrong. Here's how Neil DeGrasse Tyson could have been more accurate about the physics of how gravity affects ...
