Gravitational lensing often evokes images of a cosmic funhouse mirror: duplicated galaxies, dramatic arcs and distorted ...

The universe is ballooning outward at an ever-faster clip under the power of an unknown force dubbed dark energy. One of the ...

Now, researchers have discovered a strange energy source at the center of our galaxy that could be linked to a different type ...

If gravity arises from entropy, scientists could unite Einstein's general relativity with the quantum realm while shedding ...

A strange energy source at the center of the Milky Way may be a new type of dark matter. Scientists found that hydrogen gas ...

A better understanding of type Ia supernovas could help solve the mystery of dark energy — the strange force that is causing the universe to expand at accelerating rates. That's because ...

The Landauer equivalent energy of information carried, or represented by matter, effectively provides an information dark energy (IDE). Many objects in the universe, ranging in size from stars to ...

New research suggests that dark energy isn't needed to explain the acceleration in the expansion of the universe — instead suggesting giant voids in space are creating an illusion. Dark energy ...

There's a cosmic controversy brewing in the universe. It centres around the mysterious force known as "dark energy." This concept emerged from observations of distant supernovae that, in the late ...

The discovery, made with the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), contains several "missing link" intermediate-mass black holes. This is both the largest sample of dwarf galaxies with ...
