Scientists at the University of British Columbia Okanagan say they’ve found a mathematical limit that shuts down the ...

For years, the idea that reality might be a sophisticated computer program has drifted from late-night dorm debates into ...

A supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in the US has just pulled off the largest astrophysical simulation of the Universe accomplished to date. In November 2024, physicists used 9,000 ...

When scientists push the limits of the world's most powerful supercomputers, they often find those limits are just the beginning of what's possible. In early November, the Department of Energy's ...

Physicist Mir Faizal, Adjunct Professor with UBC Okanagan’s Irving K. Barber Faculty of Science, was not out to shatter the dreams of science fiction enthusiasts when he began to study the limits of ...

A mathematical proof has finally debunked the idea that we live in a simulation, according to a group of international researchers. The theory that the universe could be a computer programme has been ...

However, astronomers now say that the effect of ordinary matter, which makes up only 16 percent of all matter in the Universe, and neutrinos, tiny particles that rarely interact with normal matter, ...

The powerful space telescope will take a vastly wider look at the universe than Hubble or the James Webb Space Telescope, potentially helping to unravel pressing cosmic mysteries. When you purchase ...

The Bolshoi supercomputer simulation, the most accurate and detailed large cosmological simulation run to date, gives physicists and astronomers a powerful new tool for understanding such cosmic ...
