Bridging quantum mechanics and cosmology: The role of the generalized uncertainty principle by Ahmed Farag Ali, Jonas Mureika, Elias C. Vagenas and Ibrahim Elmashad Editors' notes ...

If the void does exist, as evidence suggests, that may mean we need to revise some of the physical laws we use to describe the cosmos. After all, Banik's theory would explain why the Hubble ...

Physical Review Letters ... “We showed Hubble doesn’t give you much wiggle room to play around with cosmology. That means the source [of ultramassive galaxies] is very likely astrophysics.” ...

Cosmology gives meaning to astronomical observations of the universe that surrounds us, with physical principles that apply on Earth as well as in the rest of the universe. This "study of the world" ...

Astrophysicists have long explored questions about the large-scale structure of the Universe through standard tools of physical cosmology. What Torquato and Philcox did was offer proof that a new ...

Experimental evidence? Conformal cyclic cosmology offers some detailed, albeit speculative, answers to the question of where our Big Bang came from.

The particle tracks emanating from a high energy collision at the LHC in 2014. These types of ... More collisions test conservation of momentum and energy far more robustly than any other ...
