Dark energy and black holes are two of the most mysterious topics when it comes to space, but they might actually be linked.

Astronomers are rethinking one of cosmology’s biggest mysteries: dark energy. New findings show that evolving dark energy models, tied to ultra-light axion particles, may better fit the universe’s ...

The James Webb Telescope confirms the universe is expanding faster than expected, challenging current cosmology and hinting ...

The Universe may not have begun with a Big Bang, but instead with a Big Bounce, according to a new theory about how the Universe expands ...

Astrophysicists at the University of Chicago have developed physics-based models suggesting that dark energy could be changing over time. Dark energy, the mysterious force causing the universe to ...

New strategies may soon allow scientists to test dark energy theories within our own solar system, linking cosmic-scale physics to local observation. Science advances through a cycle of proposing ...

Astrophysicists have presumed for nearly a century that the universe will just keep expanding for all eternity, driven by an invisible force called dark energy. But new data suggest that this is ...

Dark matter has two central properties: it has mass like regular matter, and unlike regular matter, it reacts weakly or not at all with light. Neutrinos satisfy these two criteria, but neutrinos move ...

Evidence of this quantum layer may be coming soon. Here’s what you’ll learn in this story: Physicists are still puzzling over ...

Astro Brief is a collaboration between KSMU, the Missouri Space Grant, and MSU's Department of Physics, Astronomy and ...

UChicago-led study analyzes massive galaxy clusters mapped by the Dark Energy Survey, offers new way to probe cosmic laws ...

If recent discoveries that dark energy is evolving hold any water, our Universe will collapse under its own gravity on a ...
