Scientists are a step closer to solving one of the universe's biggest mysteries as new research finds evidence that two of ...

When it comes to understanding the universe, what we know is only a sliver of the whole picture.

What is the nature of dark matter? A new experiment led by Columbia University physics professors aims to find out.

New research puts forward compelling new evidence that dark matter interacts with cosmic "ghost particles" called neutrinos.

Axions are hypothetical light particles that could solve two different physics problems, as they could explain why some ...

Scientists build ultra-sensitive detectors to study dark matter and dark energy, which make up most of the universe but remain unseen and poorly understood ...

Do you know which are the most abundant particles in the universe? It is neutrinos — small, chargeless, and nearly massless subatomic particles that either don’t interact with matter at all or ...

AUSTIN (KXAN) — The most sensitive dark matter detector in the world is showing results in the hunt for the hypothetical particle. The results: they can’t find it. “If you think of the search for dark ...

The nature of dark matter is one of the leading mysteries in modern astronomy. In fact, the name "dark matter" is essentially a placeholder for something astronomers know is there but can't yet ...

Andrea Gallo Rosso is a member of the ALPHA collaboration. He receives funding from the Swedish Research Council. Several experiments have aimed to unveil what it’s made of, but despite decades of ...

Dark matter is claimed to make up over 80% of all matter in the universe, but scientists have never seen it. We only assume it exists because, without it, the behavior of stars, planets and galaxies ...
