The Milky Way could have more satellite galaxies than previously thought, according to new research. Cosmologists at Durham University predict the existence of between 80 and 100 satellite galaxies ...

Cosmologists have discovered new evidence from the early universe that suggests we are living in a giant void. After studying sound waves from the initial moments of the universe – essentially the ...

Albert Einstein, one of the greatest minds in history, revolutionized our understanding of space, time, and gravity. But despite his brilliance, there was one groundbreaking discovery that eluded him, ...

Cosmologists using the UK’s Memory Intensive DiRAC HPC service at Durham University, with support from Dell Technologies, are working toward an answer to that and other questions about our universe.

For millennia, humans have been fascinated by the mysteries of the cosmos. Unlike ancient philosophers imagining the universe’s origins, modern cosmologists use quantitative tools to gain insights ...

Cosmologists just got more confused “There’s a whole slew of projects that are about to start taking data or have just started,” Palanque-Delabrouille said at the Royal Society meeting.

A pair of imaginative cosmologists have great news for everyone: If a primordial black hole tunnels through your body, you probably won’t die. This unexpected reassurance is part of their larger ...

But before digging into what the axion could be and why it’s so useful, we have to explore why the vast majority of physicists, astronomers, and cosmologists accept the evidence that dark matter ...

Cosmologists are preparing to cast their sharpest-ever eyes on the early Universe. From an altitude of 5,300 metres on Cerro Toco, in northern Chile’s Atacama Desert, the Simons Observatory will ...

While cosmologists and astronomers have identified circumstantial evidence for the existence of dark matter, from the rotation rates of stars within galaxies to the largest structures visible in ...

Cosmologists can then use that measurement to calculate what the present-day Hubble constant ought to be. While subject to far less uncertainty than the supernova method, it does require the use ...

Cosmologists trying to understand how to unite the two pillars of modern science — quantum physics and gravity — have found a new way to make robust predictions about the effect of quantum ...
