Universe Sings the Tune of General Relativity

An international research team, including scientists from The Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), used the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) to test Einstein's theory of general relativity at cosmological scales. The study constrained the gravitational constant to within 4.7% across billions of light-years. The research also set an upper limit on the sum of neutrino masses at 0.071 electron volts (eV), providing a refined measurement of these elusive subatomic particles. [...Read More]
