A duo of theorists proposes a new theory to explain both the surprisingly small mass of the Higgs boson and the puzzling symmetry properties of…
Cosmic physics mimicked on table-top as graphene enables Schwinger effect. Researchers at The University of Manchester have succeeded in observing the so-called Schwinger effect, an…
‘A watershed in furthering our understanding of these structures,’ researcher says. An unprecedented new telescope image of the Milky Way galaxy’s turbulent center has revealed…
A team mapping radio waves in the Universe has discovered something unusual that releases a giant burst of energy three times an hour, and it’s…
The Violent Star Eta Carinae Model Is Based On Multiwavelength Observations It was once one of the brightest stars in the heavens, easily visible to…
Crystal-clear images of meandering bipolar stellar jets from young stars captured with adaptive optics. Sinuous stellar jets meander lazily across a field of stars in…
The discovery, one of the only confirmed intermediate-mass black holes, lives in an equally rare object known as a low-mass, stripped nucleus. Astronomers discovered a…
Astronomers have spied three more exoplanets. But the discovery might not last long. Each planet is in a separate solar system, and each orbits perilously…
DOE Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument passes 7.5 million measured galaxy redshifts. The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) has cataloged more galaxies than all other previous…
We often think of supernova explosions as inevitable for large stars. Big star runs out of fuel, gravity collapses its core, and BOOM! But astronomers…
Findings by the Center for Computational Relativity and Gravitation published in Nature Astronomy. For the first time, scientists believe they have detected a merger of…
An international research team will survey the stars, star clusters, and dust that lie within 19 nearby galaxies. To understand galaxies, you have to understand…
The James Webb Space Telescope (Webb) is designed to answer fundamental questions about the Universe. One of Webb’s key science goals is to study the…
Our Universe began some 13.8 billion years ago in a huge explosion that produced the first subatomic particles and the laws of physics as we…
On Monday, January 24, engineers plan to instruct NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope to complete a final correction burn. This will place it into its…
An international team of scientists may have solved a key mystery about the origins of Earth’s water, after uncovering persuasive new evidence pointing to an…
Everything we see in the universe is a snapshot of the past: As light takes its time to reach our telescopes, the system we’re observing…
