The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) has delivered a stunning breakthrough by confirming Einstein’s general ...

The DESI project previously reported that dark energy — long thought to be constant — changes over time. A new analysis reaffirms that claim.

The largest survey of our universe ever conducted suggests that it closely matches the model most favored by cosmologists. It ...

A cataclysmic quantum fluctuation could wipe out everything at any moment. The fact that we’re still here is revealing hidden ...

Quantum chaos is a useful framework for quantum many-body systems, but it has been mostly applied to isolated systems. Here the authors study the interplay of chaos and dissipation in open quantum ...
