Astronomers have detected ordered magnetic fields in galaxies so young that conventional models struggle to explain how those ...

Velocity streamlines within the reconstructed volume, with colored envelopes associated with the prominent nearby basins of attraction. The map and streamlines have been cropped to the region covered ...

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 ...

Researchers studying a distant spiral galaxy have found that large-scale, ordered magnetic fields existed far earlier in ...

A new three-volume study explores how quantum physics, gravitation and cosmology may be understood within a unified ...

A group of researchers at the University of Waterloo and the University of British Columbia have discovered a potential “cosmic glitch” in the universe’s gravity, explaining its strange behaviour on a ...

James is a published author with multiple pop-history and science books to his name. He specializes in history, space, strange science, and anything out of the ordinary.View full profile James is a ...

How do the billions of galaxies in the Universe organize themselves? While the night sky gives the impression of a random scattering, an immense invisible framework actually orchestrates their ...

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 ...
