With high accuracy and stability of GPS radio occultation data in the stratosphere, COSMIC data is used to validate the Microwave Temperature Sounder (MWTS) channel 4 (57.29GHz, shorted for ch4) ...

Astronomers claim to have found new evidence supporting a controversial observation that our galaxy is residing in an ...

Professor Emeritus of Physics at the University of Washington used some fancy technology (WMAP data on the cosmic microwave background with a Mathematica calculation) to produce the sound of the Big ...

In this paper, we propose a new way of designing artificial material volumes (or metamaterials), which have pre-specified dielectric constants. We also evaluate the dependency of the resulting ...

Such bulk, concentrated in one place, can tilt measurements of cosmic expansion and subtly tweak the cosmic microwave background (CMB). Quipu and the cosmic web Cosmologists describe large-scale space ...

(via Sabine Hossenfelder) In the Big Bang Theory, the cosmic microwave background — microwave-range radiation that floats through the entire universe at a steady 2.7 Kelvin — is evidence that a hot ...

By Ashley Strickland, CNN (CNN) — Astronomers have used mysterious fast radio bursts, or millisecond-long bright flashes of radio waves from space, to help them track down some of the missing ...
