The Direction of Time
The concept of time is an ever-present force that shapes our understanding of events unfolding in a sequence from the past through the present into the future. This linear framework for time is deeply ingrained in our perception and the way we experience the world around us. However, what underlies the unidirectional flow of time? Why does time move forward and not backward? These questions have puzzled physicists for decades, leading to intriguing insights into the relationship between time and the fundamental laws of the universe.

A novel hypothesis has substantially revised Stephen Hawking's 1974 theory on black holes, proposing that all objects with mass might ultimately vanish. Stephen Hawking's renowned theory regarding black holes has received a grim update, asserting the inevitable evaporation of everything in the cosmos. In 1974, Hawking introduced the idea that black holes gradually dissipate through Hawking radiation, releasing energy in the form of light particles due to their potent gravitational pull. A recent alteration to this theory suggests that Hawking radiation isn't exclusive to black holes but extends to all objects possessing sufficient mass.
Decoding the Universe's Enigma: A Fresh Approach to Gauging Cosmic Expansion
Researchers Propose Innovative Approach for Measuring Universe Expansion A team of scientists at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences in Bengaluru has put forward a novel method to determine the rate of the universe's expansion by utilizing gravitational waves generated during the merger of black hole pairs. By leveraging sophisticated gravitational wave detectors, the researchers aim to analyze the sequences of black hole mergers and the time intervals between them, enabling them to calculate the expansion rate without relying on specific data about the involved galaxies or black hole pairs.
