Frontier, the second fastest supercomputer in the world, used dark matter and the movement of gas and plasma rather than just gravity to model the observable universe.

Information could become the fifth state of matter alongside gas, plasma, liquid, and solid states. A scientist has proposed ...

Dark energy, which drives the accelerated expansion of the Universe, is assumed to be constant since the Universe began by ...

The Flagship 2 simulation, developed using an algorithm by University of Zurich astrophysicist Joachim Stadel, is the largest ...

The Euclid Consortium released Flagship 2, the largest and most detailed universe simulation. It maps billions of galaxies and trillions of particles. This digital model aids scientists in analyzing ...

When scientists push the limits of the world's most powerful supercomputers, they often find those limits are just the beginning of what's possible. In early November, the Department of Energy's ...

The Frontier supercomputer's calculations provide a new foundation for simulating the universe's conventional physics, but also the enigmatic behaviors and properties of dark matter. reading time 3 ...

The simulations will be used by astronomers to test the standard model of cosmology. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. The world's ...

Our understanding of cosmology hinges on how well we know our own local universe, which remains poorly mapped and poorly understood ...

We have long taken it for granted that gravity is one of the basic forces of nature—one of the invisible threads that keeps the universe stitched together. But suppose that this is not true. Suppose ...

Melvin M. Vopson is affiliated with the University of Portsmouth and the Information Physics Institute. We have long taken it for granted that gravity is one of the basic forces of nature – one of the ...

“You can journey to the ends of the earth in search of success,” 19th-century Baptist preacher Russell Conwell is said to have proclaimed, “but if you’re lucky, you will discover happiness in your own ...
