RUDN University astrophysicists have gathered the most important discoveries of modern cosmology from 1917 to our time. The collected data became an introduction to Philosophical Transactions of the ...

For the past few years, a series of controversies have rocked the well-established field of cosmology. In a nutshell, the predictions of the standard model of the universe appear to be at odds with ...

Viscous cosmology explores the influence of internal frictional effects in the cosmic fluid on the large-scale dynamics of the universe. In this framework, bulk and shear viscosity act as dissipative ...

What are the mysterious dark matter and dark energy that seem to account for so much of our universe? Why is the universe expanding? For the past 30 years, most cosmologists have looked to the ...

Modern cosmology rests on a simple assumption: if we look on large enough scales, matter should be distributed evenly, with no preferred direction within the cosmos. This is known as the cosmological ...

For most of modern cosmology, scientists have worked with a surprisingly simple assumption: the mysterious force driving the universe's accelerating expansion has remained unchanged throughout cosmic ...

The modern description of the Universe is founded upon general relativity and the Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker (FRW) class of solutions, in which a cosmological constant or dark‐energy ...

Some of the hardest questions in cosmology begin where the usual math gives up. Push Einstein’s theory far enough back toward ...

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope ruled out 30 universe models suggesting cosmological theories remain incomplete. (Image: The Atacama Cosmology Telescope) New results from a major cosmology telescope ...
