Exhaustive emissions modeling by global physicists narrows down particle candidates. The detection more than a decade ago by the Fermi Gamma Ray Space Telescope of…
A new study makes a compelling case for the development of “NEMO”—a new observatory in Australia that could deliver on some of the most exciting…
The nature of dark matter remains one of the great unsolved puzzles of fundamental physics. Unexplained by the Standard Model, dark matter has led scientists…
Observations of dwarf galaxies around the Milky Way have yielded simultaneous constraints on three popular theories of dark matter. A team of scientists led by…
Probing Dark Matter With the Higgs Boson Visible matter – everything from pollen to stars and galaxies – accounts for roughly 15% of the total…
The latest on the Large Hadron Collider’s hunt for the hypothetical particle that may make up dark matter. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is renowned…
Using a network of gravimeters, Mainz-based scientists are attempting to track down weakly interacting matter in the interior of the Earth. An interdisciplinary research team…
New research findings from the IAS, University of Michigan, and UC Berkeley. In a new study of axion motion, researchers propose a scenario known as…
XENON1T data could be either evidence of new particle physics or unexpected contaminant. The XENON1T detector, tucked into an Italian mountainside to search for signs…
Thinking Small: New Ideas in the Search for Dark Matter Since the 1980s, researchers have been running experiments in search of particles that make up…
The universe mainly consists of a novel substance and an energy form that are not yet understood. This ‘dark matter’ and ‘dark energy’ are not…
The ALICE collaboration has presented new results on the production rates of antideuterons based on data collected at the highest collision energy delivered so far…
Sanford Underground Research Facility transitions toward fuller site operations. Crews working on the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) dark matter search experiment were at the peak of installation…
Current experiments’ detectors and data analysis efforts could be refocused to seek out newly suggested types of dark matter signals that may have been overlooked….
Scientists have been able to observe the universe and determine that about 80% of its mass appears to be “dark matter,” which exerts a gravitational…
Just like we orbit the sun and the moon orbits us, the Milky Way has satellite galaxies with their own satellites. Drawing from data on…
UC Riverside physicists demonstrate ‘self-interacting dark matter’ model can be tested using astronomical observations of Draco and Fornax. A research team led by physicists at…
