Could quantum fluctuations in the early universe enhance the creation of massive galaxy clusters?
Astrophysicists have been trying to understand the formation of cosmological objects and phenomena in the universe for decades. Past theoretical studies suggest that quantum fluctuations in the early universe, known as primordial quantum diffusion, c.....»»
Astronomers solve the 60-year mystery of quasars, the most powerful objects in the universe
Scientists have unlocked one of the biggest mysteries of quasars—the brightest, most powerful objects in the universe—by discovering that they are ignited by galaxies colliding......»»
Webb reveals early-universe prequel to huge galaxy cluster
Every giant was once a baby, though you may never have seen them at that stage of their development. NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has begun to shed light on formative years in the history of the universe that have thus far been beyond reach: the.....»»
Understanding the origin of matter with the CUORE experiment
There is so much that we do not yet know about neutrinos. Neutrinos are very light, chargeless, and elusive particles that are involved in a process called beta decay. Understanding this process may reveal the origin of matter in the universe......»»
The Universe sucks: The mysterious Great Attractor that’s pulling us in
We're headed toward something we can't clearly see—and we'll never get there. Enlarge (credit: Aurich Lawson | Getty Images) Our Milky Way galaxy is speeding through the emptiness of space at 600 kilometers per second,.....»»
Simulations with a machine learning model predict a new phase of solid hydrogen
Hydrogen, the most abundant element in the universe, is found everywhere from the dust filling most of outer space to the cores of stars to many substances here on Earth. This would be reason enough to study hydrogen, but its individual atoms are als.....»»
Probing fundamental symmetries of nature with the Higgs boson
Where did all the antimatter go? After the Big Bang, matter and antimatter should have been created in equal amounts. Why we live in a universe of matter, with very little antimatter, remains a mystery. The excess of matter could be explained by the.....»»
The first light in the universe helps build a dark matter map
In the 1960s, astronomers began noticing a pervasive microwave background visible in all directions. Thereafter known as the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), the existence of this relic radiation confirmed the Big Bang theory, which posits that all.....»»
How the designers of ‘Paint’ created a Bob Ross universe for the anti-Bob Ross
How ’Paint’s’ production design team crafted an intricate world evocative of Bob Ross’ singular aesthetic. Like most of us, Brit Adams felt transported to another state of consciousness while watching Bob Ross on TV, back.....»»
New look at "Einstein rings" around distant galaxies just got us closer to solving the dark matter debate
Physicists believe most of the matter in the universe is made up of an invisible substance that we only know about by its indirect effects on the stars and galaxies we can see......»»
JWST"s Newfound Galaxies Are the Oldest Ever Seen
We now know that the first galaxies in our universe formed shockingly fast, thanks to the latest results from the James Webb Space Telescope.....»»
Making better measurements of the composition of galaxies
A study using data from telescopes on Earth and in the sky resolves a problem plaguing astronomers working in the infrared, and could help make better observations of the composition of the universe with the James Webb Space Telescope and other instr.....»»
10 X-Men who need to be in the Marvel Cinematic Universe
As fans wait for the X-Men to debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, these 10 members of the Marvel Comics team should be the first to appear in the MCU......»»
Primordial black holes may have "frozen" the early universe
Primordial holes formed in the exotic conditions of the big bang may have become their own source of matter and radiation......»»
From CERN to Jupiter: Juice embarks on its historic journey
It is not only in the tunnels of CERN that we learn about the origin and composition of the universe. Look up, and space offers the most beautiful phenomena to study: black holes, dark matter, cosmic rays, etc. Studying planets, their structure and t.....»»
Physicists lead experiments to explore the force that binds the universe
The universe began about 14 billion years ago with a single point that contained a vast array of fundamental particles, according to the prevailing theory known as the Big Bang. Under the pressure of extreme heat and energy, the point inflated and th.....»»
Giant galaxy seen in 3D
Though we live in a vast three-dimensional universe, celestial objects seen through a telescope look flat because everything is so far away. Now for the first time, astronomers have measured the three-dimensional shape of one of the biggest and close.....»»
James Webb Space Telescope images challenge theories of how universe evolved
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) appears to be finding multiple galaxies that grew too massive too soon after the Big Bang, if the standard model of cosmology is to be believed......»»
