The visible universe has grown at least 1060 times larger since the Big Bang. Half of these would be accounted for by the hypothetical inflationary phase, a period of accelerated growth that happens in a eye-blink just after the Big Bang itself. The next 15 factors of...

In the simplest models (and thus best-studied) models, gravity is the only interaction that plays a role in the overall astrophysical predictions of the dark matter. However, many models that have interesting connections to particle physics have more complicated...

Oscillons are spatially stationary, quasi-periodic solutions of nonlinear field theories. (Informal version: oscillons are what would happen if a stone was thrown into a pond and, rather than creating ripples, the water bounced up and down at the point...
