Researchers have unveiled a new AI technique, GAME, that sharpens analysis of cosmic data, and a separate theory suggesting microscopic wormholes could explain dark energy. These advances aim to ...

At the heart of the Big Bang model of cosmic origins is the observation that the universe is expanding, something astronomers have known for nearly a century. And yet, determining just how fast the ...

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 ...

The cosmological constant is presumably an enigmatic form of matter or energy that acts in opposition to gravity and is considered by many physicists to be equivalent to dark energy. Nobody really ...
