Theoretical physicists have discovered a new space-time structure called a 'topological soliton.' Resembling black holes to distant observers, these structures are actually defects in the universe's fabric, lacking an event horizon. This finding could potentially help validate string theory, althoug

A team of theoretical physicists, using string theory, have discovered a new structure in space-time known as a “topological soliton.” These structures appear to outside observers just like black holes, but in reality, they are defects in the fabric of the universe, devoid of any matter or forces.

A team of theoretical physicists has discovered a strange structure in space-time that to an outside observer would look exactly like a . But that same theory predicts that their centers are singularities, which are points of infinite density. Since we know that infinite densities cannot actually happen in the universe, we take this as a sign that Einstein’s theory is incomplete. But after nearly a century of searching for extensions, we have not yet confirmed a better theory of gravity.But we do have candidates, including string theory.
