Searching for the supernova neutrino background to the universe
It's a sobering statement that stars like the sun, more accurately all stars will die eventually—yes, even the sun. Don't panic, though, we still have a good few billion years to go so you will get to the end of this article. The more massive stars.....»»
Direct incentives may boost hiring managers" willingness to employ individuals with criminal convictions
Millions of people in the United States have a criminal conviction and are searching for work. But most employers are reluctant to hire people with records, especially those with felony convictions, a disproportionate share of whom are people of colo.....»»
What makes a supercluster?
By eye, it's impossible to pick out the exact boundaries of the superclusters, which are among the largest structures in the universe. But that's because they are not defined by their edges, but by the common motion of their components......»»
Experiment sets new record in search for dark matter
Figuring out the nature of dark matter, the invisible substance that makes up most of the mass in our universe, is one of the greatest puzzles in physics. New results from the world's most sensitive dark matter detector, LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ), have narrowe.....»»

New analysis of Webb data measures universe expansion rate, finds there may not be a "Hubble tension"
We know many things about our universe, but astronomers are still debating exactly how fast it is expanding. In fact, over the past two decades, two major ways to measure this number—known as the "Hubble constant" —have come up with different ans.....»»
Neutron-star mergers illuminate the mysteries of quark matter
Neutron stars are the remnants of old stars that have run out of nuclear fuel and undergone a supernova explosion and a subsequent gravitational collapse. Although their collisions—or binary mergers—are rare, when they do occur, these violent eve.....»»
