This also means that there could be hidden curvatures of space-time or gravitational fields, which could explain a fundamental issue in physics: the hierarchy problem. There are several ongoing ...

Astronomers have detected strange "wobbles" in the light curve of a super bright supernova, hinting that a magnetar was born inside the extreme stellar explosion.

Science in the modern era is increasingly reliant on enormous datasets and automated analysis. In astronomy, the Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST)—a ten-year survey ...

We could go out with a crunch, and not a bang. Contrary to popular belief, our universe may not be constantly expanding after all. A groundbreaking study by South Korean researchers suggests that dark ...

Scientists studying a mysterious effect called cosmic birefringence—a subtle twist in the polarization of the universe’s oldest light—have developed a new way to reduce uncertainty in how it’s ...

Scientists worldwide respond to the publication of the three-volume monograph “Quantum Model of the Universe” #Physics ...

Across physics, biology and philosophy, a once-fringe idea is gaining new intellectual weight: the possibility that the cosmos behaves less like a dead machine and more like a living system. Instead ...
