A new simulation of the galaxy’s magnetic turbulence shakes up how we think about—and visualize—the astrophysical environments. The model was developed by James Beattie, a postdoctoral fellow at the ...

The effects of space weather extend out across our entire solar system, but this is a simulation of where everything starts: the sudden, violent, emergence of a "flux rope" out of the sun's magnetic ...

A scientist from Tokyo Metropolitan University has shown that large gamma-ray-emitting bubbles around the center of the Milky Way were produced by fast, outward-blowing winds and an associated ...

The Center for Computational Astrophysics at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ) has introduced the HPE Cray XD2000 system as a new supercomputer to replace the current dedicated ...

The notion that our universe might be a giant simulation has intrigued scientists and philosophers for decades. Recent advancements in technology and theoretical physics have reignited this debate, ...

For the first time, researchers have created simulations that directly recreate the full life cycle of some of the largest collections of galaxies observed in the distant universe 11 billion years ago ...

Researchers led by the University of Tsukuba present computer simulations that capture the complex dynamics of elusive neutrinos left over from the Big Bang Current simulations of cosmic structure ...

Even though space travel is still a distant prospect, it doesn't stop humans from playing around with the scenery – in the ...
