After 9 months of number crunching on a powerful supercomputer, a beautiful spiral galaxy matching our own Milky Way emerged from a computer simulation of the physics involved in galaxy formation ...

York University and an international team of astrophysicists have made an ambitious attempt to simulate the formation of galaxies and cosmic large-scale structure throughout staggeringly large ...

The impending merger of the two galaxies hints at what might be in store for the Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxy if and ...

Using a new computer model of galaxy formation, researchers have shown that growing black holes release a blast of energy that fundamentally regulates galaxy evolution and black hole growth itself.

Paradox of ultramassive black hole formation solved by supercomputer New simulations reveal that triple galaxy mergers could help explain how the largest black holes in the universe grew so quickly.

Researchers have discovered a distant disc galaxy that has surprisingly similar characteristics to our own Milky Way, and it could change our understanding of how galaxies form.

This modification in the cosmological model helps address the puzzle of small galaxy sizes observed in the early universe, allowing for more accurate observations.
