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?

Besides particles like sterile neutrinos, axions and weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), a leading candidate for ...

In a first-of-its-kind test, scientists used a levitated magnet to search for dark matter, the unidentified substance believed to be present throughout the cosmos. If dark matter is made up of ...

A new study by researchers at Dartmouth College offers a fresh explanation about the origin of dark matter — the mysterious, ...

Researchers set a new lower mass limit of 2.2 × 10⁻²¹ eV for ultralight bosonic dark matter using stellar motion data from Leo II.

Dartmouth researchers propose a novel theory suggesting dark matter originated from high-energy, massless particles in the early universe. These particles collided and rapidly gained mass ...

It looks like an alien world, or a floating snow globe suspended in space. But this perfect sphere, hiding in our Milky Way ...

The standard cosmological model's puzzling inconsistency lies in differing acceleration rates observed in the universe's ...

You’re heading out the door for a workout when you spot some cereal and realize you’re hungry. What do you do? If you’re ...

A group of researchers is exploring a possibility most have ignored. What if dark matter — that invisible mass shaping the cosmos — actually changes over time? Until now, theories have focused ...

Scientists have successfully relocated protons outside of an antimatter laboratory with the help of an autonomous, open Penning trap. This breakthrough marks a significant step toward transporting ...
