Scientists at the University of British Columbia Okanagan say they’ve found a mathematical limit that shuts down the ...
The universe is a vast and complex structure packed with endless stars, planets, nebulae, and galaxies stretching back almost 14 billion years. While this is the age of the universe, there's a ...
For years, the idea that reality might be a sophisticated computer program has drifted from late-night dorm debates into ...
The visible cosmos may contain roughly 6 x 10^80 — or 600 million trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion — bits of information, according to a new estimate. The findings could have ...
Physicist Mir Faizal, Adjunct Professor with UBC Okanagan’s Irving K. Barber Faculty of Science, was not out to shatter the dreams of science fiction enthusiasts when he began to study the limits of ...
A mathematical proof has finally debunked the idea that we live in a simulation, according to a group of international researchers. The theory that the universe could be a computer programme has been ...
In his first year of graduate school, in 2013, Michael Wagman walked into his advisor’s office and asked, “Can you help me simulate the universe?” Wagman, a theoretical physicist and associate ...
Scientists made a twin version of our universe, showing the evolution of all forms of matter and energy, in the biggest cosmological computer simulation to date. When you purchase through links on our ...
Is it possible to simulate the entire universe on a computer smaller than the universe? Physics seems to be telling us that it’s possible to simulate the entire universe on a computer smaller than the ...
Researchers have created what they say is the largest computer simulation of the universe, and have made the data available for anyone to download for free. “Uchuu is like a time machine: we can go ...
Image: This computer-simulated image shows the formation of two high density regions (yellow) in the early universe, approximately 200 million years after the Big Bang. The cores are separated by ...
