A newly-detected spinning galaxy filament is reshaping our understanding of cosmic structure, gas flows, and the origins of galactic spin.

Mikhail Ivanov, Oliver Philcox, and Marko Simonović won the New Horizons Award for their work on large scale structures — the strands and filaments of our universe which contain buried clues to its ...

Velocity streamlines within the reconstructed volume, with colored envelopes associated with the prominent nearby basins of attraction. The map and streamlines have been cropped to the region covered ...

Researchers led by the University of Tsukuba present computer simulations that capture the complex dynamics of elusive neutrinos left over from the Big Bang Current simulations of cosmic structure ...

For years, scientists have worked to chart the universe’s massive structure, aiming to test key models of cosmology. These efforts also help uncover how galaxies form and change over time. While most ...

New observations suggest our estimates of the cosmic dipole effect are actually in line with the large scale structure of the universe. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

When most people see a leafhopper in their backyard garden, they notice little more than a tiny green or striped insect flicking from leaf to leaf. But these insects are actually master engineers, ...
