Magnetic fields thread the largest structures in the observable universe. They trace the filaments of the cosmic web, wind ...

3D simulations reveal how shockwaves from stellar explosions and winds may carve hub-and-spoke structures in molecular clouds ...

Somewhere between the galaxy clusters that dot the observable universe, enormous threads of hot, diffuse gas stretch across ...

The universe is full of fascinating structures, and some of the most striking take shape inside the giant clouds where stars ...

Astronomers have developed a groundbreaking computer simulation to explore, in unprecedented detail, magnetism and turbulence in the interstellar medium (ISM) -- the vast ocean of gas and charged ...

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 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 ...

Researchers have developed a novel virtual model for simulating how astronauts in future moon base operations might interact ...

How will future missions to the Moon help extract valuable resources that can be used for scientific research or lunar settlement infrastructure? This is what a recent study being presented this week ...

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 ...
