The standard model for how galaxies formed in the early universe predicted that the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) would see dim signals from small, primitive galaxies. But data are not confirming ...
A group of astronomers analyzing data from the James Webb Space Telescope ( JWST) say some of the oldest galaxies in our ...
As if searching for dark matter isn't difficult enough already, physicists may have detected another hurdle known as a ...
It is neutrinos — small, chargeless, and nearly massless subatomic particles that either don’t interact with matter at all or interact very weakly. They are so lightweight that even an electron is six ...
Since its launch, the James Webb Space Telescope has identified early galaxies that shine unexpectedly brightly, suggesting ...
On a mountain in northern Chile, scientists are carefully assembling the intricate components of the NSF–DOE Vera C. Rubin ...
A hypothetical particle that could make up the universe’s dark matter may be produced by and hang around neutron stars, some of the densest objects in the universe, according to a team of ...
Utilizing a novel AI-driven method, researchers enhanced the precision of estimating critical cosmological parameters by ...
The universe is made up of much more than meets the eye. While telescopes reveal countless galaxies, each containing billions ...
The giant holes in galaxies’ centers shouldn’t be able to merge, yet merge they do. Scientists suggest that an unusual form of dark matter may be the solution. Galaxies have been merging into ...
