Light has always been the ultimate tool for etching information into silicon, but a new class of materials that can bend and reshape that light at will is starting to look like the missing ingredient ...

Scientists have unveiled a groundbreaking discovery: a material capable of bending light in unprecedented ways. This advancement opens up possibilities for innovations in optics, including superlenses ...

An ultra-massive black hole has been uncovered using gravitational light bending, something theorized by Albert Einstein in his General Theory of Relativity. A team of astronomers have used a bent ...

THE idea of detecting the Einstein deflection by measures of two neighbouring stars has occurred to many people, and Prof. C. V. Raman writes to suggest that the apparent distance of the two ...

According to Einstein's Theory of Gravity, a ray of light is attracted by a clump of matter. As a consequence of "gravitational lensing," the light ray changes its direction from a straight line by a ...
