Artificial intelligence (AI) has again completed a pursuit thought to be almost "impossible" by humans. It creates a Milky Way simulation showcasing the progress of more than 100 billion individual ...

A galaxy may look calm and stable from far away, but new research suggests it can actually behave in surprisingly chaotic ...

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 ...

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 ...

In collaboration with the US' Georgia Institute of Technology, researchers from Maynooth University in Ireland have unveiled a new computer simulation that mirrors early universe conditions, ...

The simulated Milky Way-like galaxy at present taken from the simulation produced in the study. Simulation: Takayuki Saitoh (Kobe University/Tokyo Tech ELSI). The hundreds of gold-rich stars ...

This simulation shows both how stellar bars form (left) and the bar-driven gas inflows (right). Stellar bars play an important role in galaxy evolution by funneling gas into the central regions of a ...
