A new emulator is tackling the near-impossible task of mapping the universe's large-scale structure without sacrificing ...

A strange “Einstein Cross” with an extra, impossible fifth image has revealed the hidden presence of a massive dark matter ...

Research team includes astrophysicists, computer scientists, artists, and philosophers from UC Riverside, USC, and Carnegie ...

Mapping the Universe’s vast structure no longer requires endless supercomputer time. Effort.jl brings cosmic modeling to laptops without sacrificing accuracy.

The largest known structure in the Universe may be even larger than the large we thought it was. A re-examination of the distribution of powerful space explosions suggests that the Hercules-Corona ...

If you think a galaxy is big, compare it to the size of the universe: it's just a tiny dot which, together with a huge number ...

Long before galaxies sparkled in the sky or stars took shape, invisible forces stirred in the early Universe. One of those ...

Is time something that flows — or just an illusion? Exploring space-time as either a fixed “block universe” or a dynamic fabric reveals deeper mysteries about existence, change, and the very nature of ...

Modern cosmology suggests that the universe has no single spatial centre or edge. The Big Bang did not occur at one ...

New computer simulations suggest the first magnetic fields that emerged after the Big Bang were much weaker than expected — ...

Mapping the distribution of matter in the universe is an important quest for cosmology and astrophysics. There is a battle going on between the universe's accelerated expansion and gravity trying to ...

New observations from the MeerKAT radio survey suggest our estimates of the cosmic dipole effect are actually in line with ...
