Cosmic web
Appearance
Cosmic web is the large-scale structure of the universe characterized by a network of filaments, nodes, and voids formed by the distribution of dark matter and galaxies.
The cosmic web is discussed in cosmology, astrophysics, and large-scale structure studies.
Status
The cosmic web is inferred from galaxy surveys and cosmological simulations. Its formation and evolution are modeled within the framework of gravitational instability and dark matter dynamics.
