The team behind Europe's Euclid space telescope just published the world's most extensive simulation of the universe, which maps an astonishing 3.4 billion galaxies.

The dynamical dance of physics can entrance — as the latest supercomputer models of the cosmos demonstrate. Dubbed FLAMINGO, the set of simulations captures the emergence of the structure of the ...

Scientists made a twin version of our universe, showing the evolution of all forms of matter and energy, in the biggest cosmological computer simulation to date. When you purchase through links on our ...

Novel computational methods have helped create the most information-packed universe-scale simulation ever produced. The new tool provides fresh insights into how black holes influence the distribution ...

The Flagship 2 simulation, developed using an algorithm by University of Zurich astrophysicist Joachim Stadel, is the largest and most detailed universe simulation ever created.

The formation of galaxies is a complex dance between matter and energy, occurring on a stage of cosmic proportions and spanning billions of years. How the diversity of structured and dynamic galaxies ...

An international collaboration of astronomers has created the most detailed simulation yet of the early stages of the universe. The simulation can be seen in the video below, showing the first light ...

Since the gravitational waves predicted by Einstein were first detected in 2015, astrophysicists have been pondering the gravitational wave background—the cumulative undulations of these spacetime ...

It could help scientists understand if the standard model of cosmology – used to explain the evolution of the Universe – provides a good description of reality. Previous simulations, which have been ...

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 ...

For the past several years, a team of University of California astrophysicists working at Los Alamos National Laboratory have been using a cluster of roughly 300 computer processors to model some of ...

Euclid Consortium, the international group that manages the European Space Agency’s Euclid space telescope, has published the ...
