Dark matter is one of nature's most confounding mysteries. It keeps particle physicists up at night and cosmologists glued to ...

"If we see the lampshade effect in action, it will tell us about what dark matter could be, which is exciting." ...

Celestial objects known as dark dwarfs may be hiding at the center of our galaxy and could offer key clues to uncover the ...

Some of the faintest, coldest stars in the universe may be powered not by fusion—but by the annihilation of dark matter deep ...

I totally get people’s frustration with how that season ended. I think it made narrative sense for the character to put ...

The energy we interact with and the matter we are made of and see is at most 5 percent of the total. What’s the rest? We don't know exactly. About 70 percent is called dark energy, responsible for the ...

But axions were pushed aside as the WIMPs hypothesis gained more steam. Back-of-the-envelope calculations showed that the natural mass range of the WIMP would precisely match the abundances needed to ...

In work published on the arXiv preprint server, the authors look at both evolving dark energy and evolving dark matter and argue that the latter is a much better fit to observational data.

Scientists are on the trail of a mysterious five-particle structure that could challenge one of the biggest theories in ...

However, while the emitted dark matter would not emit any radiation, it would affect space - time. The researchers found that the emitted dark matter would ring space-time like a bell around the ...

Dark matter is more than five times as abundant as all the visible matter in the universe. So why can't we see any of it?

Dark matter, which makes up 80 percent of all matter in the universe, may have formed in the very short time before the big bang.
