Dark energy—the term used to describe whatever is causing the universe to expand at an increasing rate—is one of the universe ...

Mathematical quirks of our universe have led some cosmologists wonder whether the cosmos was actually born in a black hole.

EHT images of M87* show evolving magnetic fields, jet emission near its base, and a stable shadow consistent with Einstein's ...

Let’s first talk about how mysterious dark energy is. Einstein, back in the day, added a cosmological constant to his equations to make the universe "static," but later regretted it, calling it the ...

When black holes collide, they release gravitational waves. The waves contain information on the collision. If one black hole is much heavier, the waves vary with the observation angle.

Ten years ago, science confirmed one of Albert Einstein’s most elusive predictions: the existence of gravitational waves. Now ...

Two black holes merged together 2.4 billion light years away from Earth, and scientists have just figured out how fast the newborn ricocheted, and in which direction.

Observatory goes online later this decade, it will create one of science's biggest data challenges. The SKA Observatory is a global radio telescope project built in the Southern Hemisphere. There, ...

Gravitational waves shake the very fabric of the universe when black holes collide. Today we measure these events and use them to understand the ...

New finding advances our understanding of complex topological quantum systems and could help in the development of next-generation memory and storage devices ...
