The Siena Galaxy Atlas will be a tool for research into how galaxies form and evolve, gravitational waves, dark matter and the structure of our universe.
Astronomers are championing a relatively new technique as a method to understand the structure of the early universe in three dimensions.
Just because matter is visible doesn’t mean it’s easy to see.
LSST Camera images provide the inspiration for artist Lennart Lahuis’s “Astromelancholia.”
The powerful camera built for the Dark Energy Survey has taken more than 1 million photos from its perch in Chile. Here are some of the best.
Astrophysicist Maria Vincenzi won the award for her thesis, which created a process for preventing Dark Energy Survey data from being thrown out due to contamination from unusable supernovae.
In particle physics, “annihilation” is a transformation.
Explore 10 new works related to particle physics and astrophysics, plus a bonus book on math.
When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, travel bans and stay-at-home orders meant astrophysicists collaborating on the Dark Energy Survey needed to find a new way to conduct their observations using the Dark Energy Camera.
