Way back when the world was young and I still attended physics conferences, I got very excited by galactic cosmic rays. There seemed to be more cosmic rays than expected coming from the center of our ...

A new study published in Physical Review Letters by the IceCube Collaboration reports evidence that the energy spectrum of ...

Record-breaking galaxy map: Webb’s COSMOS-Web survey mapped 164,000 galaxies, revealing the universe’s large-scale structure in unprecedented detail. Challenging cosmic models: Dense early clustering ...

A computational approach inspired by the growth patterns of a bright yellow slime mold has enabled a team of astronomers and computer scientists at UC Santa Cruz to trace the filaments of the cosmic ...

A new analysis of the South Pole-based telescope's cosmic microwave background observations has all but ruled out several popular models of inflation. Physicists looking for signs of primordial ...

Earthly slime mold models have helped astronomers map the cosmic web that connects galaxies throughout the universe. Slime mold, or Physarum polycephalum, is a single-cell organism that builds complex ...

A computational approach inspired by the growth patterns of a bright yellow slime mold has enabled a team of astronomers and computer scientists to trace the filaments of the cosmic web that connects ...

Abstract: Cosmic variance is the intrinsic scatter in the number density of galaxies due to fluctuations in the large-scale dark matter density field. In this work, we present a simple analytic model ...

Concord, Mass.-based SolidWorks Corp., part of the billion-dollar French multinational corporation Dassault Systemes, is best known for its development of 3D mechanical design software — powerful but ...

Astronomers have discovered a vast tendril of hot gas linking four galaxy clusters and stretching out for 23 million light-years, 230 times the length of our galaxy. With 10 times the mass of the ...
