Are Astronomers Wrong About Dark Energy? - Slashdot An anonymous reader shared this report from CNN: The universe's expansion might not be accelerating but slowing down, a new study suggests If confirmed, the finding would upend decades of established astronomical assumptions and rewrite our understanding of dark energy, the elusive force that coun
Something Is Wrong with Dark Energy, Physicists Say The cosmological constant was resurrected Scientists believe that the force behind the constant must come from energy present in empty space, which they call vacuum energy, or dark energy
Whats Driving Dark Energy? - Universe Today We can debate whether LCDM is wrong or not, but we can’t debate that it’s incomplete That’s because, among other things, we have no idea what dark energy IS
Einstein May Have Been Right, but Is Our Understanding of . . . If dark energy is getting weaker, it topples astronomy’s standard model for the energy content within the universe and how it has evolved over time It also means that the universe’s future may unfold differently than the field of astronomy has thought
Is Einstein’s “Cosmological Constant” Wrong? New Data . . . Dark energy, the mysterious force causing the universe to expand at an accelerating rate, remains one of the biggest puzzles in modern cosmology The leading theory today holds that dark energy is a constant property of space itself, with the vacuum’s intrinsic energy driving cosmic acceleration
