Scientists in Greece have laid out a mathematical framework to help explain a so-far-unsolved gap in our understanding of how gravity scales up to the full size of our universe. Specifically, ...

A new study links the universe’s expansion to quantum topology, suggesting that hidden mathematical structures may stabilize ...

Churning nano-wormholes could explain the clash in our cosmological constants. The wormholes add magnitude to a math parameter called the Gauss-Bonnet term. Boosting one term in a complex equation ...

Dark energy—the term used to describe whatever is causing the universe to expand at an increasing rate—is one of the universe’s greatest mysteries. The widely accepted theory at the present moment ...

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 ...

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 ...

Do constants of nature—the numbers that determine how things behave, like the speed of light—change over time as the universe expands? Does light get a little tired traveling vast cosmic distances? It ...

Early in its history, shortly after the Big Bang, the universe was filled with equal amounts of matter and 'antimatter' -- particles that are matter counterparts but with opposite charge. But then, as ...
