A groundbreaking study from the University of York has proposed a revolutionary concept: dark matter, the elusive substance ...

In a significant stride towards understanding the universe’s elusive dark matter, scientists have potentially identified the ...

Despite it’s comparative size to our star, it’s still the least massive object ever detected using gravitational lensing.

A gamma ray glow at our galaxy’s center has puzzled scientists for almost two decades. New computer simulations back the ...

Ultrafine dark matter, millions of times lighter than electrons, could flow through the cosmos in waves. We might just have an easy way to check for tiny interactions between this dark matter and the ...

Such an exponential expansion may seem minor, but it is equivalent to a grape in the palm of your hand swelling to become ...

Dark matter has two central properties: it has mass like regular matter, and unlike regular matter, it reacts weakly or not at all with light. Neutrinos satisfy these two criteria, but neutrinos move ...

In experiments at the Brookhaven National Lab in the U.S., an international team of physicists has detected the heaviest “anti-nuclei” ever seen. The tiny, short-lived objects are composed of exotic ...

A team of astronomers have found a mysterious object in the distant universe that could be dark matter or an inactive smaller, or dwarf, galaxy.

Imagine a star powered not by nuclear fusion, but by one of the universe’s greatest mysteries—dark matter. Scientists have proposed the existence of “dark dwarfs,” strange glowing objects potentially ...

AI tools developed at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource's Structural Molecular Biology Resource analyze diffraction patterns to distinguish split protein crystals (left) from useable ...
