Abstract: Cosmic variance is the intrinsic scatter in the number density of galaxies due to fluctuations in the large-scale dark matter density field. In this work, we present a simple analytic model ...

A new three-volume study explores how quantum physics, gravitation and cosmology may be understood within a unified ...

Velocity streamlines within the reconstructed volume, with colored envelopes associated with the prominent nearby basins of attraction. The map and streamlines have been cropped to the region covered ...

How do the billions of galaxies in the Universe organize themselves? While the night sky gives the impression of a random scattering, an immense invisible framework actually orchestrates their ...

A computational approach inspired by the growth patterns of a bright yellow slime mold has enabled a team of astronomers and computer scientists at UC Santa Cruz to trace the filaments of the cosmic ...

Recent studies suggest that our galaxy, the Milky Way, may be situated in a cosmic void, a revelation that could potentially resolve some complex cosmological mysteries. The exploration of these ...

Way back when the world was young and I still attended physics conferences, I got very excited by galactic cosmic rays. There seemed to be more cosmic rays than expected coming from the center of our ...
