Around the same time, researchers such as Edward Witten speculated about the potential connection between cosmic strings and superstring theory, providing a link between particle physics and ...

In the study, one team found several potential candidates for cosmic strings, focusing on an area called CSc-1. Cosmic strings – if they do exist – would be extremely dense, and a possible ...

These cosmic strings could stretch the length of the universe. A piece of this string only 1.6 kilometers long would weigh more than the earth. Others have added to the theory: That symmetry still ...

(via Sabine Hossenfelder) The BBC claims that researchers have found the first evidence for string theory, citing a recent discovery of long-wavelength gravitational waves that might indicate the ...

The search for cosmic strings epitomizes humanity’s relentless drive to decipher the universe’s most profound mysteries, heralding potential scientific breakthroughs. What really wiped out the ...

Astronomers have discovered a rare group of five dwarf galaxies located relatively close to Earth; these galaxies exist in a near-perfect alignment, resembling a string of cosmic pearls in the sky.
