Scientists are using cosmic distortions in light to test a bold idea: that the Universe might not be as symmetrical as we’ve ...

Ralf Klessen investigates the physical processes that governed the formation of the first generation of stars in the early ...

Confirming such rotation would open a new chapter in cosmology. It would imply the universe isn't as isotropic as thought, with profound consequences for our understanding of its origin and evolution.

The core idea is that our universe evolved ... goes from “the rather homogeneous and isotropic cosmic microwave background to the highly complex landscape it has become with all its galaxy ...

Among the wreckage of the Milky Way — where the violent deaths of stars usually leave chaos and crumpled shells — astronomers ...

This discovery challenges the cosmological principle, which states the Universe should be homogeneous and isotropic on large scales. The team used a catalog of 542 gamma-ray bursts, primarily ...

Lu Lu looks forward to the next two decades of neutrino astrophysics, exploring the remarkable detector concepts needed to ...

Teleios was spotted serendipitously during the Evolutionary Map of the Universe (EMU), a sweeping ... “Expansion into an isotropic but rarefied environment could help explain Teleios’s remarka ...

The book discusses applications to early universe models and slow-roll inflation models, to the problem of cosmic topology, to non-isotropic cosmologies like mixmaster universes and Bianchi IX ...
