"WIMPs are still the leading candidate for dark matter, but billions of dollars of experiments have been done, only getting ...

New research puts forward compelling new evidence that dark matter interacts with cosmic "ghost particles" called neutrinos.

The search for dark matter has been largely unsuccessful so far. But now, scientists think they know where to look for it.

For more than half a century, scientists have tried to understand dark matter—a mysterious form of matter that doesn’t emit or absorb light but is thought to make up most of the universe’s mass. Its ...

Researchers propose a new theory for the origin of dark matter, the invisible substance thought to give the universe its shape and structure. Their mathematical models show that dark matter could have ...

Researchers from Ohio State University have come up with a novel method to detect dark matter based on existing meteor-detecting technology. Using ground-based radar to search for ionization trails, ...

A new theory suggests fusion reactors could help scientists search for axions, mysterious particles that may explain dark ...

The use of atomic clocks could help bring cosmology and astrophysics "down to Earth" by allowing scientists to investigate the mysteries of dark energy and dark matter in the lab. When you purchase ...

A study by Dartmouth researchers proposes a new theory about the origin of dark matter, the mysterious and invisible substance thought to give the universe its shape and structure. The researchers ...
