The neutrino “fog” is beginning to materialize. Lightweight subatomic particles called neutrinos have begun elbowing their way into the data of experiments not designed to spot them. Two experiments, ...
Two experiments designed to detect signals directly found no evidence for the signal reported by an earlier experiment.
Over the past decades, many research teams worldwide have been trying to detect dark matter, an elusive type of matter that does not emit, reflect or absorb light, using a variety of highly sensitive ...
A new theoretical framework suggests dark matter’s elusive behavior may arise from the geometry of a hidden fifth dimension.
The evidence for dark matter is everywhere and the evidence for dark matter is nothing. Galaxies rotate in ways that make no ...
After decades of hunting, physicists still don’t know what makes up most of the universe’s matter. Now they need to cast a wider net.
What if I told you that while you can't see dark matter, maybe you can hear it? I know, I know, it sounds crazy…and it is crazy. But it's crazy enough that it just might work. It's a real life ...
AUSTIN (KXAN) — The most sensitive dark matter detector in the world is showing results in the hunt for the hypothetical particle. The results: they can’t find it. “If you think of the search for dark ...
Scientists have just slashed the potential hiding spaces for dark matter particles. The LUX-ZEPLIN, or LZ, experiment has searched for and ruled out the existence of dark matter particles with a wide ...
Australia's bid to detect elusive dark matter has taken a major step forward, with new research confirming that cosmic radiation levels deep inside the Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory (SUPL) ...
The world’s most sensitive dark matter detector still hasn’t found evidence of weakly interacting massive particles, or WIMPs, but the search continues. LZ’s central detector, the time projection ...
The nature of dark matter is one of the leading mysteries in modern astronomy. In fact, the name "dark matter" is essentially a placeholder for something astronomers know is there but can't yet ...
