Imagine a star powered not by nuclear fusion, but by one of the universe’s greatest mysteries—dark matter. Scientists have ...

Cosmologist Katie Mack breaks down what the latest findings about dark energy mean for our universe’s future. Either way, it won’t be happy. Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI ...

Space Dark energy bombshell sparks race to find a new model of the universe ‘Shocking’ results from a major astronomical study have raised doubts about the standard model of cosmology, forcing ...

Their resulting machine is a quantum computer capable of reliably detecting dark matter. They can tell when it passes through ...

Brown dwarfs are too small to sustain the nuclear fusion that powers most stars, so they cool and fade over time. But if they ...

Collaboration has obtained a high-precision cosmic-ray boron spectrum in the energy range of 10 GeV/n–8 TeV/n, and discovered ...

If dark energy is weakening, as suggested by recent results, ... For w(z) greater than –1, the universe’s dark energy dilutes over time, consistent with DESI’s findings.

The Vera C. Rubin Observatory released a sneak peak of some of the images it is unveiling, the first set of space images from ...

The findings could undermine the existing standard cosmological model of the universe called the lambda-cold dark matter (LCDM) model, which takes dark energy, ordinary matter, and cold dark ...

Even if DESI’s findings hold up, they still can’t say what dark energy is. But they can provide much stronger clues than cosmologists had before. The DESI-based model implies that dark energy ...

There may be many more satellite galaxies in the Milky Way than have been observed, according to new Durham University ...

Adding to this mystery is dark energy—a strange f Astronomers have long searched for answers beyond what telescopes can see, driven by questions about how galaxies form and evolve in the fabric ...
