Weak Gravitational Lensing

Dark matter, indirectly detected in a cluster of thousands of galaxies, could help scientists test theories of cosmic evolution.

Scientists made a twin version of our universe, showing the evolution of all forms of matter and energy, in the biggest cosmological computer simulation to date.

Dark matter isn't visible to the human eye, or even telescopes, but there is an ingenious way to map its presence across the universe.

Space agencies are on the quest to investigate the most mysterious force.

Astrophysicists found the "clumpiness" of Universe's dark matter to be 0.76, a figure conflicting with the Cosmic Microwave Background value of 0.83, indicating possible errors or an incomplete cosmological model. The research used the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program data and will further

When Edwin Hubble observed distant galaxies in the 1920s, he made the groundbreaking discovery that the universe is expanding. It was not until 1998, however, that scientists observing Type Ia supernovae further discovered that the universe is not just expanding but has begun a phase of accelerating expansion. "To explain this acceleration, we need a source," says Joseph Mohr, astrophysicist at LMU. "And we refer…

Scientific journal Nature published its list of "Ten People Who Helped Shape Science in 2022″ to highlight key events in science through the compelling stories of those involved."…

In her book The Disordered Cosmos, Black queer scientist Chanda Prescod-Weinstein argues that physics can be more universal.

New results from the DESI (Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument) Collaboration have revealed signs of a time-varying dark energy.

Findings from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) suggest that dark energy could be evolving over time. If they're right, cosmology will need a new model.

The Physics of the Accelerating Universe Survey (PAUS), an international collaboration across 14 institutions, has covered a sky area of 50 square degrees, similar to approximately 250 full moons.

Astronomers have indirectly detected dark matter hanging from the "loose ends" of filaments that comprise the cosmic web in the Coma Cluster of galaxies.

As part of a plan to prepare for the quantity and range of data that will be coming in from the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, currently scheduled to launch by May 2027, NASA has granted funding to five project infrastructure teams (PITs), which will write software, run simulations, and plot out optimal uses of the telescope's data stream.

Fresh images show off the Euclid space telescope's ability to capture crisp pictures of vast swaths of sky

On Tuesday (Nov. 7), we'll get to see the universe in full color through the eyes of the European Space Agency's (ESA) Euclid probe for the first time.

The first efforts toward simulating all components of the universe fail to resolve the S8 tension. Is the standard theory of cosmology in trouble?

The European Space Agency's Euclid mission launched a space telescope to better understand dark matter and dark energy, two of the most mysterious phenomena in the universe.

The anti-gravity force that is driving the accelerating expansion of the universe appears to be distributed uniformly across space and time.

The cosmos would look a lot better if Earth's atmosphere wasn't photo bombing it all the time.

Cosmologists are using secondary signatures from the cosmic microwave background to map the universe's hidden matter.
