Dark matter halos are everywhere in the universe, yet no telescope can see them. These vast, invisible structures surround ...

If recent measurements of cosmic ray particles are correct, then we may have the first evidence that the universe as we know it is really a giant computer simulation. Humans have explored the laws of ...

Scientific theories say the disks around a black hole should be flat, but a new simulation shows they're not. Joe is a freelance journalist. It all started with a long-running affection for building ...

The space agency's new simulator will study the effects of space radiation on the body -- overcoming the challenges of long-duration spaceflight. Jackson Ryan was CNET's science editor, and a multiple ...

An international collaboration involving Leiden University has released more than 2.5 petabytes of FLAMINGO cosmological simulation data, among the largest public datasets ever created in astronomy.

When cosmic rays hit the Earth’s atmosphere, their high-energy primary particles generate an ‘air shower’ of secondary particles. These cascades of particles provide information on the physical ...

(Nanowerk News) An international research team has developed a computer programme that can simulate the transport of cosmic rays through space. The researchers hope it will help them solve the mystery ...

A team of scientists at NASA’s Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, California, has successfully reproduced, right here on Earth, the processes that occur in the atmosphere of a red giant star and ...

Using a new computer model of galaxy formation, researchers have shown that growing black holes release a blast of energy that fundamentally regulates galaxy evolution and black hole growth itself.

Much remains a mystery about the first billion years of the universe’s history, the epoch in which the cosmos emerged from its dark ages with the dawning of the earliest stars and galaxies. Now ...
