Finding the Missing Bridges Between Galaxy Clusters
In today’s paper, the authors look for the more than 50% of matter in the universe that’s ‘missing’ from our count by searching for bridges between clusters of galaxies.
Meet the great-great-grandparents of galaxy clusters
JWST has found the oldest galaxy cluster ever, and studying it might give us some clues about the history of modern-day clusters.
Colossal strands of galaxies are spinning through the Universe
Cosmic filaments are some of the biggest structures in the Universe. Now, we’ve learned that they’re spinning around in space.
Binary Black Holes Tangled Up in the Cosmic Web
The next generation of gravitational wave detectors could reveal how intertwined binary black holes are with the cosmic web – and where these black holes came from.
Connections on the Cosmic Web
Where a galaxy lies on the cosmic web can play a part in determining it’s mass and star formation rate.
