Frontier, the second fastest supercomputer in the world, used dark matter and the movement of gas and plasma rather than just gravity to model the observable universe.

The supercomputer is known as Frontier, lives at Oak Ridge National Laboratory — and is a beast of a device. Built to be the first exascale supercomputer, it can perform up to 1.1 exaFLOPS ...

The infant universe transforms from a featureless landscape to an intricate web in a new supercomputer simulation of the cosmos’s formative years. An animation from the simulation shows our ...

The supercomputer is called Frontier; a team of researchers recently used it to run the largest astrophysical simulation of the universe yet. The supercomputer’s simulation size corresponds to ...

Each virtual universe had a different ... Researchers at the University of Arizona have used the school's Ocelote supercomputer as a "UniverseMachine" that generates millions of mini universes to ...

NASA supercomputer finds billions of comets mimicking the Milky Way's shape: 'The universe seems to like spirals! : Read moreTo this layman, ...

Astronomers have carried out the biggest ever computer simulations from the Big Bang to the present day to investigate how the Universe evolved. The FLAMINGO simulations calculate the evolution of all ...

The universe may have been born out of nothing, with an "anti-universe" twin where time runs in the opposite direction—rather than exploding from an infinitely small and dense point, or ...

Thanks to a new, immersive visualization produced on a NASA supercomputer, we're kicking off #BlackHoleWeek with a virtual plunge into the event horizon—a black hole's point of no return: https ...

Google first announced that Sycamore had passed the RCS benchmark in 2019, when scientists used the chip to resolve a problem that would have taken a classical supercomputer 10,000 years to calculate.

I've long been fascinated by the fundamental mystery of our universe's origin. In my work, I explore an alternative to the traditional singularity-based models of cosmology. Instead of a universe ...
