The Lumina simulation follows galaxies, gas and radiation across the early universe, helping astronomers test how hydrogen ...

Understanding the formation and evolution of the centers of galaxies is one of the most intriguing challenges in astrophysics. The new study aims to unveil the physical processes that led to the ...

A new Milky Way-like galaxy simulation has revealed that nuclear star clusters and nuclear stellar disks can form together from the same flow of material at the center of galaxies. The central regions ...

Using a new simulation, Johns Hopkins University researchers have reconciled predictions about neighboring galaxies with what has been observed by astronomers and high-powered telescopes. The results ...

New simulations of Milky Way-like galaxies reveal that the strange split between two chemically distinct groups of stars may arise from several very different evolutionary events. Bursts of star ...

It’s also further evidence that extraterrestrials should've settled the entire Milky Way by now. So where are they? Reading time 5 minutes A new computer simulation shows that a technologically ...

This animation shows the simulated evolution of a galaxy over 200 million years. While the simulations look very similar with and without the machine learning AI model, the AI model performed 4 times ...
