What if the universe’s secret wasn’t hidden in a black hole or trapped in quantum foam, but coiled up literally in a tortilla? That’s the taste of the most recent cosmic controversy, as ...

For decades, scientists assumed that the expansion of the universe was powered by a new entity, known as the inflaton, but new research suggests that it may have been possible without it.

The early universe experienced a phase of rapid expansion, known as inflation. For decades, cosmologists assumed that this expansion was powered by a new entity in the universe, known as the inflaton.
