  1. [Einstein's theory and #observation data] Researchers have compared #DarkEnergySurvey data with predictions from Einstein's theory of #GeneralRelativity ... and discovered some #incompatibility ...

    “We have discovered that very far in the past, 6 and 7 billion years ago, the depth of the #GravitationalSinks is completely compatible with Einstein's predictions. On the other hand, in the period closer to today, 3.5 and 5 billion years ago, they are a little shallower than predicted by Einstein”, reveals Isaac Tutusaus, assistant astronomer at IRAP / Université Paul Sabatier Toulouse III.

    Is the slowdown in the growth of gravitational sinks linked to the acceleration of the #expansion of our #Universe? The answer will undoubtedly be found in a few years' time, thanks to more numerous and more precise data from the @ec_euclid mission.
