Physicists have proposed a new model of space-time that may provide the 'first observational evidence supporting string theory,' a new preprint suggests.

The universe’s expansion is accelerating, not decelerating. Our understanding of how the universe works may need an update.

First discovered in the 1990s, dark energy has come to feel like a familiar face of the cosmos. Astronomers first imagined ...
