They have basically disproved Penrose-Hawking's theories of singularity? Isn't that like a pretty big deal? To people working in this field, what is the reaction to this paper?
- mensetmanusman 1y agoThey predict a non flat curvature, so no (not with existing data and measures, which may improve in the future).
- potamic 1y agoCould you elaborate for a layman? Is there more to the following statements than it seems? > Penrose proved that under very general conditions, gravitational collapse must lead to a singularity..... we show that gravitational collapse does not have to end in a singularity. We find an exact analytical solution – a mathematical result with no approximations
