Sentences with phrase «geometry of space»

As such, gravity is not a force, but a change in the local geometry of space - time.

Exhibition detail of Geometry of Space at HOME, Manchester, UK, 2008.

From galaxy distances, you are also able to answer some cosmological questions like the large - scale geometry of space, the density of the universe needed to stop the expansion (called W [«Omega»]-RRB-, age of the universe, and whether or not the universe will keep expanding.

So depending on the geometry of space, eventually the expansion may exceed the speed of light meaning there would be an event horizon lost to us forever.

Proponents of these two theories could agree as to how to measure the observed angle between two stars, even though they disagreed concerning the geometry of space.

I know it is really a set of equations, but it can be written in concise form: It is matter and energy of the world that determines the geometry of space.

Just months later, Karl Schwarzschild, a 42 - year - old physicist serving in the German army during the First World War, successfully applied Einstein's abstract equations of space and time to a realistic physical problem, modeling the geometry of space surrounding a star.

This runs counter to Einstein's hope that the geometry of space - time would provide the new paradigm for unifying the forces.

Now known as the Schwarzschild solution, it describes the geometry of space - time around extremely dense stars — and it has some very strange features.

It overcame apparent contradictions between Newtonian gravity and special relativity by interpreting gravity in terms of the geometry of space - time.

Rather it was the result of distortions in the geometry of space (or more correctly, since it's relativity, spacetime).

As they travel through the universe, they shrink and stretch the space - time continuum; in other words, they distort the geometry of space itself.

Einstein applied their work to write down the equations that relate the geometry of space - time to the amount of energy that it contains.

Einstein was very special — I mean, creating that theory, general relativity [which describes gravity as a product of the geometry of space and time].

General relativity then forges a far - flung connection between the geometry of space and time and the behavior of objects in motion within space and time.

They then calculated what happens to the geometry of space - time as it evolves.

Introduced in 1915, Einstein's revolutionary theory says that matter warps or curves the geometry of space - time, and we experience that distortion as gravity.

A formula relating matter and the geometry of space - time was required in order to express the expansion of the Universe mathematically.

A related puzzle is the flatness problem: if, at the Big Bang, the geometry of space had deviated ever so slightly from a flat configuration, the curvature of the universe would have subsequently been rapidly amplified.

Chul - Hyun Ahn began his exploration of the geometry of space while he was still a student of painting at the School of Fine Arts in Seoul.

Nicolas K Feldmeyer: Subliminal Spaces @ Maddox Fine Arts A hypnotic video work of water slowly filling a square dug into a beach and other subtle works exploring the geometry of space.

Alejandra Laviada, born in 1980 and based in Mexico, will present her «Geometry of Space» series, in which she uses discarded building materials in multiple exposures to form powerful abstract compositions.
