Using the shadows of clusters to measure the universe
Astronomers have begun using a sophisticated suite of simulations, an advanced machine learning model of the formation of galaxy clusters, and an exotic relationship between galaxies to understand the origins of dark matter and dark energy......»»
Cate Blanchett nails the outlaw look as Lilith in Borderlands official trailer
Welcome to the "weirdest, most dangerous, dumpster fire of a world in the universe." Cate Blanchett stars as an infamous outlaw named Lilith in director Eli Roth's Borderlands, adapted from the popular gaming franchise. The Borderla.....»»
JWST sees a Milky Way-like galaxy coming together in the early universe
The gigantic galaxies we see in the universe today, including our own Milky Way galaxy, started out far smaller. Mergers throughout the universe's 13.7 billion years gradually assembled today's massive galaxies. But they may have begun as mere star c.....»»
Black hole fashions stellar beads on a string
Astronomers have discovered one of the most powerful eruptions from a black hole ever recorded. This mega-explosion billions of years ago may help explain the formation of a striking pattern of star clusters around two massive galaxies, resembling be.....»»
Nightmare black hole is the brightest object in the universe
A monster black hole has been discovered, and it devours the equivalent mass of our sun every single day......»»
Why LA"s last big storm caused landslides in only some areas
The last round of atmospheric river storms drenched Southern California with historic rainfall, and by one measure, it came close to beating a record for the most rain over a three-day period......»»
Quantum dark states lead to an advantage in noise reduction
While atomic clocks are already the most precise timekeeping devices in the universe, physicists are working hard to improve their accuracy even further. One way is by leveraging spin-squeezed states in clock atoms......»»
With Madame Web bombing, it’s time to ask: Who wants a Spider-Verse without Spider-Man?
Madame Web is the latest Sony superhero movie to flop — and further proof that building a Spider-Movie movie universe without Spider-Man was a mistake......»»
Even if we can"t see the first stars, we could detect their impact on the first galaxies
For a long time, our understanding of the universe's first galaxies leaned heavily on theory. The light from that age only reached us after traveling for billions of years, and on the way, it was obscured and stretched into the infrared. Clues about.....»»
CERN researchers measure speed of sound in the quark–gluon plasma more precisely than ever before
Neutron stars in the universe, ultracold atomic gases in the laboratory, and the quark–gluon plasma created in collisions of atomic nuclei at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC): they may seem totally unrelated but, surprisingly enough, they have somet.....»»
Earthquake fatality measure offers new way to estimate impact on countries
A new measure that compares earthquake-related fatalities to a country's population size concludes that Ecuador, Lebanon, Haiti, Turkmenistan, Iran and Portugal have experienced the greatest impact from fatalities in the past five centuries......»»
Trapping sulfate to benefit health, industry and waterways
Scientists have developed a new method to measure and remove sulfate from water, potentially leading to cleaner waterways and more effective nuclear waste treatments......»»
Innovative technique reveals that leaping atoms remember where they have been
University of Oxford researchers have used a new technique to measure the movement of charged particles (ions) on the fastest ever timescale, revealing new insights into fundamental transport processes. These include the first demonstration that the.....»»
New thermometry method reveals that compressing a gas may lead to cooling
An international research team from Innsbruck and Geneva has developed a new thermometry method to measure temperatures for low-dimensional quantum gases. With this method it was found that compressing a gas may lead to cooling. The results on this c.....»»
Madame Web’s ending, explained
Now that Madame Web has swung into theaters, let's break down the ending and what it means for Sony's Spider-Man Universe......»»
Scientists map the largest magnetic fields in galaxy clusters using synchrotron intensity gradient
In a new study, scientists have mapped magnetic fields in galaxy clusters, revealing the impact of galactic mergers on magnetic-field structures and challenging previous assumptions about the efficiency of turbulent dynamo processes in the amplificat.....»»
eROSITA X-ray sky survey measurements show consistency with the cosmic microwave background
The analysis of how galaxy clusters, the largest objects in the universe, evolve over cosmic time has yielded precise measurements of the total matter content and its clumpiness, report scientists of the German eROSITA consortium, led by the Max Plan.....»»
Discovery of unexpected ultramassive galaxies may not rewrite cosmology, but still leaves questions
Ever since the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) captured its first glimpse of the early universe, astronomers have been surprised by the presence of what appear to be more "ultramassive" galaxies than expected. Based on the most widely accepted cosm.....»»
Wade Wilson is kidnapped by the TVA in Deadpool and Wolverine teaser
"Your little cinematic universe is about to change forever." Wade Wilson (Ryan Reynolds), aka Deadpool, is back to save the MCU: "I am Marvel Jesus." After some rather lackluster performances at the box office over the last year or.....»»
