The new findings come from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), which sits on a telescope at the Kitt Peak National Observatory in Arizona.
Recent findings from the DESI and DES cosmological surveys challenge the long-held assumption of a constant dark energy density, suggesting instead that it may vary over cosmic time.
He's a member of the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX), is studying dark energy from an earlier time in the universe's existence than DESI.HETDEX is also focused on sound ...
Imagine a star powered not by nuclear fusion, but by one of the universe’s greatest mysteries—dark matter. Scientists have ...
In the wake of bombshell findings that suggest dark energy might be weakening as the universe expands, physicists are considering replacing the standard cosmological model of the universe with ...
Cosmologist Katie Mack breaks down what the latest findings about dark energy mean for our universe’s future. Either way, it won’t be happy.
Evidence is mounting that cosmic dark energy, long thought constant, may weaken with time - potentially altering the fate of ...
New research suggests that the Milky Way may host more satellite galaxies than previously predicted, thanks to advanced ...
Columnist and Physics How dark energy findings may inspire a new generation of physics nerds. The discovery of the cosmic acceleration problem truly inspired me as a teenage physics nerd.
The findings could undermine the existing standard cosmological model of the universe called the lambda-cold dark matter (LCDM) model, which takes dark energy, ordinary matter, and cold dark ...
The Milky Way could have many more satellite galaxies than scientists have previously been able to predict or observe, ...
Now, recent findings released March 19 from two of the largest cosmological surveys to date - the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey and the Dark Energy Survey (DES) - challenge ...
