New research published in Physical Review Letters suggests that superconducting magnets used in dark matter detection ...

Seen as a long strand with smaller threads branching, the Quipu superstructure contains 68 galaxy clusters spanning 1.4 ...

Finally, the Earth moves a little bit beyond one complete revolution, so the stick again points towards the sun for a second ...

A high-speed crash between two dwarf galaxies might explain a unique feature in space – and provide useful information on ...

The first test images from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory in Chile showcase thousands of previously unknown asteroids and ...

Dark matter affects how stars move within galaxies, how galaxies build up over time, and how everything in the universe is ...

A diagram demonstrating the flat space-time of the quantum field and the curved field expected for quantum gravity. (Mikko Partanen and Jukka Tulkki/Aalto University) The Standard Model is a gauge ...

When matter is collected in one place, it forms a center of mass from which its inward-pointing field of gravitational influence extends. The force of attraction between two objects falls off as ...

Gravitational Fields and mass of objects within the field. From Newton’s Law of Gravitation, the field diagram to represent the field around any mass will always be a monopole that is attractive – ...

For instance, when these objects exist in binary systems — meaning two of them constantly accelerate around one another — they continuously emit gravitational waves until they finally collide ...

The strength of gravity between two objects depends on their masses and the distance between them. Gravitational changes can therefore be measured by something like a weight on a spring.
