A research team relies on measuring the number of galaxy members to determine the mass of galaxy clusters. One of the most pressing questions in…
New insights into dark matter emerge as researchers explore the ‘dark photon’ hypothesis, challenging the standard model hypothesis. Led by experts at the University of…
Scientists have discovered that cosmic structures grow slower than Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity predicts, with dark energy playing a more dominant inhibitory role than…
A recent study from SISSA proposes a new model of non-local interaction between the dark matter of a galaxy and gravity. Isaac Newton described his…
A study on the orbital motions of wide binaries has uncovered evidence that standard gravity breaks down at low accelerations. This discovery aligns with a…
Comparisons between optical clocks at PTB bolster the quest to detect potential interactions between ultralight dark matter and photons. Observations in astronomy suggest the presence…
Euclid, a space mission led by the European Space Agency (ESA) that includes a massive optical camera designed and built by University College London (UCL)…
In the search for dark matter — the mysterious, invisible substance that makes up more than 80% of matter in our universe — scientists and…
International research led by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) and the University of La Laguna (ULL) has found the first evidence of a…
A team from the University of Geneva has developed the first method for testing together Einstein’s and Euler’s theories for the accelerating expansion of the…
Stars powered with dark matter still need proving but could reveal clues about the nature of one of the universe’s great mysteries. Stars beam brightly…
Gravitational waves from merging black holes could unveil the nature of dark matter, according to computer simulations presented at the 2023 National Astronomy Meeting. Using…
Exploring dark matter and the first bright galaxies simultaneously: 21-cm forest probe may unlock secrets of early universe. A joint research team has proposed a…
An international team of scientists used advanced techniques and the Hyper Suprime-Cam to study dark matter’s “clumpiness,” finding an S8 value of 0.76, conflicting with…
NASA is contributing to the European Space Agency mission, which will complement dark energy studies by the agency’s upcoming Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. The…
ESA’s Euclid spacecraft lifted off aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida, USA, at 11:12 a.m. EDT on…
Astrophysicists found the “clumpiness” of Universe’s dark matter to be 0.76, a figure conflicting with the Cosmic Microwave Background value of 0.83, indicating possible errors…
