First-of-its-kind experimental evidence defies conventional theories about how plasmas emit or absorb radiation
Most people are familiar with solids, liquids, and gases as three states of matter. However, a fourth state of matter, called plasmas, is the most abundant form of matter in the universe, found throughout our solar system in the sun and other planeta.....»»
Infrared capabilities of JWST reveal earliest galaxies in the young universe
Analysis of the very first image from the James Webb Space Telescope shows that the MIRI instrument, developed in the Netherlands, works even better than thought. Researchers from the University of Groningen demonstrate that the infrared telescope sh.....»»
I dare the universe to take my wallet and keys again
I’d like to think of myself as someone who never loses things. Sure, I misplace things all the time, but the things always turn up. On paper, however, I’ve actually lost two things in the last two years. I knew where the things were both times,.....»»
Recent searches for light fermionic dark matter by the PandaX-4T collaboration
Teams of astrophysicists worldwide are trying to observe different possible types of dark matter (DM), hypothetical matter in the universe that does not emit, absorb or reflect light and would thus be very difficult to detect. Fermionic DM, however,.....»»
This nearby dwarf galaxy has been a loner for almost the entire age of the universe
The James Webb Space Telescope Early Release Science (ERS) program—first released on July 12th, 2022—has proven to be a treasure trove of scientific finds and breakthroughs. Among the many areas of research it is enabling, there's the study of re.....»»
Video: Euclid completes thermal vacuum testing
At the Thales Alenia Space test facility in Cannes, France, the massive door of the thermal vacuum chamber was opened after a month of rigorous testing of ESA's Euclid mission to explore the dark universe......»»

How a quest for mathematical truth and complex models can lead to useless scientific predictions
A dominant view in science is that there is a mathematical truth structuring the universe. It is assumed that the scientist's job is to decipher these mathematical relations: once understood, they can be translated into mathematical models. Running t.....»»
Research team reconstructs gravity to find a more robust way of understanding the cosmos
Scientists from around the world have reconstructed the laws of gravity, to help get a more precise picture of the universe and its constitution......»»
Astronomers discover closest black hole to Earth
Black holes are the most extreme objects in the universe. Supermassive versions of these unimaginably dense objects likely reside at the centers of all large galaxies. Stellar-mass black holes—which weigh approximately five to 100 times the mass of.....»»
Can cosmic inflation be ruled out?
A team of astrophysicists say that cosmic inflation—a point in the universe's infancy when space-time expanded exponentially, and what physicists really refer to when they talk about the "Big Bang"—can in principle be ruled out in an assumption-f.....»»
"Stretched" nuclear states under the magnifying glass at the Krakow cyclotron
All chemical elements were formed in the process of evolution of the universe dominated by light atomic nuclei. The properties of these nuclei are therefore of crucial importance not only in astrophysics, but also in relation to our everyday life. Ou.....»»
Why The Batman universe doesn’t need the DCEU
Amid course correcting the DCEU and the scorched-earth approach from the Warner Bros. Discovery merger, The Batman can prove it can stand wholly on its own......»»
Researchers reveal a galaxy sparkling with the universe"s oldest star clusters
A team of Canadian astronomers, including experts from the Dunlap Institute for Astronomy & Astrophysics in the University of Toronto's Faculty of Arts & Science, have used the James Webb Telescope (JWST) to identify the most distant globular cluster.....»»
Testing a fundamental force: New study advances our understanding of the universe
Research from a team of physicists at the University of New Hampshire is advancing the understanding of how protons, which comprise 95% of the mass of the visible universe, interact with each other. The results provide a benchmark for testing the str.....»»
New analysis takes a closer look at the sterile neutrino
A new result from the MicroBooNE experiment at the U.S. Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory probes the Standard Model—scientists' best theory of how the universe works. The model assumes there are three kinds of neutrinos......»»
As dense as it gets: New model for matter in neutron star collisions
With the exception of black holes, neutron stars are the densest objects in the universe. As their name suggests, neutron stars are mainly made of neutrons. However, our knowledge about the matter produced during the collision of two neutron stars is.....»»
