Computer simulations have become so accurate that cosmologists can now use them to study dark matter, supermassive black holes, and other mysteries of the real evolving cosmos.

New multidisciplinary research in nuclear and particle physics and cosmology has led to the development of a more accurate computer code to study the early universe.

Suppose the law of gravity is simply a byproduct of the universe operating under a computer-like code.

Scientists are rethinking the universe’s deepest mysteries using numerical relativity, complex computer simulations of Einstein’s equations in extreme conditions. This method could help explore what ...

'The universe evolves in a way that the information content in it is compressed, optimized and organized – just as computers and computer code do,' he told MailOnline.

"The universe evolves in a way that the information content in it is compressed, optimized and organized – just as computers and computer code do," Dr. Melvin Vopson told MailOnline.

I have a theory that the oldest computer code is found in the program on which our simulated universe runs. Glitches caused by incompatible code lead to some unexplained events commented on in ...

To put it simply, our world is pixelated. The laws of physics that govern everything in the universe also resemble computer code lines that a simulation would follow in the execution of the program.

But Wolfram believes that simple computer models can reveal complex patterns in nature. It's conceivable, for example, that a simple program could reveal how the universe works.
