Mark Thomson, CERN's Director General designate for 2025, talks to the Courier about the future of particle physics.

Over the past 13.8 billion years, the universe has grown into a vast, intricate web of galaxies, stars, and cosmic structures. But according to new research, the way matter has spread out across ...

Rock the Universe will be from 4 p.m. to 1 a.m. each night. There will be a dedicated fan zone featuring live performances from up-and-coming acts and autograph sessions with participating artists.

In the moments before the Big Bang, our universe was a hot ... says that two infinite, parallel cosmic strings passing each other would create a time machine by warping space-time.

"This may be reshaping how we think about the Universe, and it's exciting! There are still surprises left in cosmology, and who knows what discoveries will come next?" This research was published in ...

New research suggests that dark energy isn't needed to explain the acceleration in the expansion of the universe — instead suggesting giant voids in space are creating an illusion. When you ...

What is the structure of our physical reality? Physicists have long imagined space and time interweaving into “space-time”, the metaphorical fabric that underlies the cosmos. But there may be ...

This discovery resolved the debate: the spiral nebulae were not mere clouds but entire galaxies. Hubble’s finding fundamentally altered humanity’s understanding of the cosmos, revealing a universe far ...

The rate of expansion, known as the Hubble constant (H0), has been a subject of debate for decades. While measurements from the Planck satellite, which studied the early Universe, indicated a certain ...

The Hubble tension just got tenser — with new measurements revealing that the universe is expanding faster than our current understanding of physics can explain. Over the past decade, cosmology ...
