For the past few years, a series of controversies have rocked the well-established field of cosmology. In a nutshell, the predictions of the standard model of the universe appear to be at odds with ...

Astroparticle physics and particle cosmology represent converging disciplines that strive to understand the universe from its largest structures down to its most fundamental constituents. In this ...

Physicist Sabrina Gonzalez Pasterski, dubbed the 'next Einstein' but rejecting the title, is leading research at the Perimeter Institute to decode the universe’s ‘source code’ through celestial ...

Cosmic viewer The Atacama Cosmology Telescope in Chile was used by the team to observe gravitational interactions between ...

Repulsive gravity at the quantum scale would have flattened out inhomogeneities in the early universe First light The cosmic microwave background, as imaged by the European Space Agency’s Planck ...

The conclusion of DESI's first survey marks an important milestone for cosmology, which finds itself in a bind for the best ...

One issue is that when scientists calculate what the Hubble constant should be, it doesn’t quite match observations of the ...

“By combining the expertise and scientific potential of our three partner institutions, we are creating a global hub for excellence and knowledge transfer in theoretical physics,” says Johannes Henn ...

Physicists at Brown University suggest that the universe’s topology could explain why the cosmological constant — the energy driving cosmic acceleration — is far smaller than quantum theory predicts.
