But in the past two decades, new types of black holes have been seen and astronomers are beginning to understand how they ...

A flat universe has Euclidean geometry, and the simplest shape it can adopt is that of a sheet. There are also other, more complex shapes that a flat universe could have, such as a "3-torus." ...

In a universe with an analogous, complex topology, you could travel across the cosmos and end up back where you started. Such a cosmos hasn’t yet been ruled out , physicists report in the April ...

The universe is vast. As far as we can see in any direction, we are in a small portion, or bubble, of the whole entire universe.That bubble is about 90 billion light years across.

A new model suggests that the universe did not undergo a Big Bang followed by inflation, as the prevailing model suggests, but a cycle of "bounces". Though so very far from anything approaching ...

From four-dimensional hexagons to the mind-bending amplituhedron, geometrical shapes are wilder than we learn at school - and ...

If you believe the Mathematical Universe Hypothesis then yes. And so are you. Quantum phenomena have no subjective qualities and have questionable physicality. They seem to be completely ...

Geometry as developed by Euclid, she said, was once thought to be “a unique collection of undeniable truths about physical space.” But then non-Euclidean geometries were developed and so ...

Beyond the Geometry of the Universe" is an immersive exhibition that invites the viewer to explore the intricate interplay between geometry and the cosmos through the lens of abstract oil painting ...
