Artist's conception of early starbursting galaxies. UC Davis astronomers collaborated on new simulations showing how bright galaxies could emerge early in the universe. Stars and galaxies are shown in ...

A cosmological simulation study by researchers from the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has systematically revealed, for the first time, how the interaction ...

Observations by the James Webb Space Telescope revealed unexpectedly luminous and seemingly over-evolved galaxies in the early universe, posing a challenge to the standard model of cosmology. New ...

(Nanowerk News) An international team of astronomers has carried out what is believed to be the largest ever cosmological computer simulation, tracking not only dark but also ordinary matter (such as ...

Dark energy is responsible for the expansion of the Universe, but its true nature is still a subject of much debate. Computer simulations based on the latest astronomical data enable scientists to ...

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.

Machine learning helps extract more information from galaxy surveys. Simulations of the universe train AI to identify cosmological patterns. AI can separate cosmological information from distracting ...

The Bolshoi supercomputer simulation, the most accurate and detailed large cosmological simulation run to date, gives physicists and astronomers a powerful new tool for understanding such cosmic ...

The background image shows the present-day distribution of matter in a slice through the largest FLAMINGO simulation, which is a cubic volume of 2.8 Gpc (9.1 billion light years) on a side. The ...
