It’s unclear whether science as a discipline—and scientists as people—will ever be able to answer some questions definitively ...

Recent observations create a puzzle for astrophysicists: since the big bang, less galaxy clusters have formed over time than was actually expected. Physicists from the university of Bonn have now ...

For decades, the prevailing cosmological model has placed dark matter and dark energy at the center of our understanding of the universe’s structure and evolution. These invisible components were ...

Mission-grade cosmology software implementing thermodynamic space-time dilatation with reproducible growth predictions ...

For decades, the cosmological field was working under the assumption that, after the universe began in a hot dense soup of energy that expanded in the Big Bang, it continued to expand, forming the ...

Tiny highly uniform magnetic fields are known to pervade the universe, influencing various cosmological processes. To date, ...

This release is available in German. As modern cosmologists rely more and more on the ominous "dark matter" to explain otherwise inexplicable observations, much effort has gone into the detection of ...

An expert shares his personal reminiscences of the evolution of the subject of cosmology over six decades. He tells of the increase in our confidence in the standard model of cosmology to the extent ...

Since the big bang, fewer galaxy clusters have formed over time than was actually expected. Physicists from the have now confirmed this phenomenon. For the next years the researchers will analyze ...

New insights into Milky Way satellite galaxies raise awkward questions for cosmologists. As modern cosmologists rely more and more on the ominous “dark matter” to explain otherwise inexplicable ...
