A team of researchers at the Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands (IAC) has created a new simulation of early galaxy formation. The simulation allows us to get a fascinating, albeit brief ...

Deep-learning model trained on a supernova simulation manages to create a Milky Way simulation in record time.

In a groundbreaking achievement in computational astrophysics, scientists have developed the first-ever simulation of the Milky Way galaxy. This model tracks the movements and interactions of an ...

In collaboration with the US' Georgia Institute of Technology, researchers from Maynooth University in Ireland have unveiled a new computer simulation that mirrors early universe conditions, ...

For the first time, a group of cosmologists say they’ve created virtual galaxies inside their computers without any dark matter. Critics of dark matter see it as a win for a controversial model of how ...

A new simulation released by NASA’s Ames Research Institute reveals a stunning vision of the evolution of a galaxy. Blue influx gases, white stars and red satellite galaxies are shown moving thousands ...

For the first time, scientists have built a digital version of the Milky Way that follows the motion of individual stars, not ...

Artist's conception of early starbursting galaxies. UC Davis astronomers collaborated on new simulations showing how bright galaxies could emerge early in the universe. Stars and galaxies are shown in ...

Formation of a single massive galaxy through time in the TNG50 cosmic simulation To learn how galaxies change over time, scientists have created the most complex ever simulation of a galaxy, called ...

Researchers have successfully performed the world's first Milky Way simulation that accurately represents more than 100 ...

Image: Snapshots of the time evolution of a collision of two spiral galaxies with black holes at their center from a computer simulation. Color indicates temperature and brightness the gas density.

With a gravitational field so strong that not even light can escape its grip, black holes are probably the most interesting and bizarre objects in the universe. Black holes are usually formed from the ...
