History has shown that new surprising results that strongly stimulate development often appear suddenly even in times, in which progress in research is seemingly slow. Boundaries of the sciences are set by our technological capabilities. We will be witnessing progress […]
by Arne Lapidus “‘Hawking’s research is very theoretical. He has changed the way people think about the universe. His main contributions are theories about black hole physics, the universe and singularities,’ says Katherine Freese, a professor of physics in Stockholm and Michigan and Director of the Research Centre Nordita in Stockholm, which organizes the weekly […]
by Anton Assarsson “Katherine Feese highlights Stephen Hawking’s research on black holes and his contributions to the understanding of the universe’s beginnings as crucial. ‘We physicists are still working with the questions formulated by Albert Einstein a long time ago. To solve these issues, we have relied to some great thinkers – and Stephen Hawking […]
