Churning nano-wormholes could explain the clash in our cosmological constants. The wormholes add magnitude to a math parameter called the Gauss-Bonnet term. Boosting one term in a complex equation ...

General Relativity continues to provide a robust framework for understanding the interplay between gravitational waves and the cosmological constant. Gravitational waves—ripples in the fabric of ...

Churning nano-wormholes could explain the clash in our cosmological constants. The wormholes add magnitude to a math parameter called the Gauss-Bonnet term. Boosting one term in a complex equation ...

Dark energy—the term used to describe whatever is causing the universe to expand at an increasing rate—is one of the universe’s greatest mysteries. The widely accepted theory at the present moment ...

DESI has made the largest 3D map of our universe. The Earth is at the central vertex, and every dot is a galaxy. DESI collaboration and KPNO/NOIRLab/NSF/AURA/R ...

For over a century, scientists have wondered what is counteracting the force of gravity in the universe. The universe is vast, almost beyond comprehension. It has an estimated diameter of 93 billion ...

What is the universe made of? This question has driven astronomers for hundreds of years. For the past quarter of a century, scientists have believed “normal” stuff like atoms and molecules that make ...

DESI has made the largest 3D map of our universe to date. Earth is at the center of this thin slice of the full map. The magnified section visualizes the underlying structure of matter in our universe ...

DESI's 3D map of our universe. The Earth is at the central vertex, and every dot is a galaxy. DESI collaboration and KPNO/NOIRLab/NSF/AURA/R. Proctor Share The great ...
