Einstein's equations reveal how gravity could break, reconnect, and release energy
More than a century after Einstein revolutionized our understanding of gravity, scientists have uncovered a surprising new phenomenon hidden within his equations. Researchers at Columbia University and Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez have identified a theoretical process called "gravitational reconnection," in which structures within gravitational fields can break apart and reconnect, transferring energy into matter.
A team from Columbia University has discovered gravitational reconnection in Einstein's equations, a mechanism that releases energy in spacetime.
Physicists have discovered in Einstein's equations a mathematical mechanism that can explain how gravitational fields adjust and transfer energy to matter. This phenomenon was called gravitational capture (reconnection).
