From The Archaeology News Network, Nov. 12, 2018: Using Dark Energy Survey data, researchers from the University of Portsmouth have come up with a new measurement of one of the most debated topics in cosmology.
Predicted by Einstein and discovered in 1979, gravitational lensing helps astrophysicists understand the evolving shape of the universe.
From Seeker, Jan. 23, 2018: Seeker, Discovery Digital’s new initiative, produced this video about the Dark Energy Survey’s recent results.
From Engadget, Nov. 29, 2017: Fermilab’s Dark Energy Survey is featured in this story and video about the search for dark matter.
From Quanta, Aug. 3, 2017: Fermilab scientists Josh Frieman and Scott Dodelson talk about the latest major result from the Dark Energy Survey, which could signal the start of a new era of cosmology.
Astronomers around the world are looking for visible sources of gravitational waves.
Scientists on the Dark Energy Survey, using one of the world’s most powerful digital cameras, have discovered eight more faint celestial objects hovering near our Milky Way galaxy. Signs indicate that they, like the objects found by the same team earlier this year, are likely dwarf satellite galaxies, the smallest and closest known form of galaxies.
Scientists on the Dark Energy Survey have released the first in a series of dark matter maps of the cosmos. These maps, created with one of the world’s most powerful digital cameras, are the largest contiguous maps created at this level of detail and will improve our understanding of dark matter’s role in the formation of galaxies.
Scientists on two continents have independently discovered a set of celestial objects that seem to belong to the rare category of dwarf satellite galaxies orbiting the Milky Way. A team of researchers with the Dark Energy Survey, headquartered at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, and an independent group from the University of Cambridge jointly announced their findings today.
