The six-year Dark Energy Survey has released its full results, showing that two leading models of cosmology are equally valid ...

Dark energy remains one of the most stubborn puzzles in modern science. Despite decades of observation and increasingly ...

Dark energy is still one of the greatest cosmic mysteries. For all the time, money and telescopes that humanity has used to ...

The most ambitious attempt to do so was the Dark Energy Survey (DES), an international collaboration that scanned a huge ...

Studying the dark energy in the universe requires the mapping of thousands of galaxies and detecting various patterns of the cosmos.

To explain these observations, they proposed a new kind of energy that is responsible for driving the universe’s accelerated expansion: dark energy. Astrophysicists now believe dark energy makes up ...

In an unprecedented step, researchers crafted a detailed model compatible with the universe’s accelerated expansion.

As the Dark Energy Survey (DES) releases its final results, we caught up with two physicists who've been involved in the ...

The six-year results from the Dark Energy Survey highlight unresolved tensions in standard cosmological theory.

Astronomers use the term dark energy to refer to energy in the universe that is unaccounted for by ordinary matter but ...

For more than two decades, the standard model of cosmology has stood as a reliable guide to the universe. Known as Lambda Cold Dark Matter, or ΛCDM, it weaves together dark energy, dark matter, and ...

Dark energy was first identified in 1998, when observations of distant supernovae revealed that the expansion of the universe ...
