Real-time black hole simulation in C++ and OpenGL, GPU ray marching with Schwarzschild geodesics, gravitational lensing, accretion disk with Doppler beaming, and interactive 2D/3D visualization.

What this is Most black hole visualisations are artwork. A torus is textured, a lens distortion is applied, and the result is tuned until it looks convincing. This one is not. Every pixel here is the ...

Black holes have been understood as infinite singularities for a century. In 1916, months after Einstein published general relativity, Karl Schwarzschild did something that surprised even Einstein ...

ABSTRACT: Employing Boyer-Lindquist coordinates we show that the Kerr solution to the field equations of General Relativity leads to the conclusion that relativistic particles experience gravitational ...

In Dallas, on 17 December 1963, three weeks after Kennedy was shot a few blocks away, a 29-year-old New Zealand mathematician named Roy Kerr was given ten minutes to present his work at the First ...

Physicists have long struggled to unite quantum mechanics—the theory governing tiny particles—with Einstein’s theory of gravity, which explains the behavior of stars, planets, and the structure of the ...

ABSTRACT: We show how, via gravitational repulsion associated with the Schwarzschild solution to the field equations of General Relativity, the extragalactic neutrinos, IceCube-170922A and KM3-230213A ...

It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is described extremely well by quantum theory, while the world of gravitation ...
