Physicists are closing in on a strange, hidden influence that does not fit neatly into the four familiar forces of nature, and the search is reshaping how detectors are built and where they are ...

Physicists suggest that a single, extraordinarily powerful cosmic signal detected on Earth could be linked to the explosive ...

For decades, astronomers have treated dark matter as the invisible scaffolding of the cosmos, a mysterious substance that ...

A team of researchers argue that the detection of a powerful neutrino collision was actually a sign of an ancient black hole ...

Physicists are building detectors so sensitive that they may succeed in unraveling one of the greatest mysteries in modern physics: the true nature of dark matter.

Astronomers propose that an ultra-dense clump of exotic dark matter could be masquerading as the powerful object thought to ...

Overlay of the infrared emission (black and white) with the radio emission (colored). The dark, low-mass object is located at the gap in the bright part of the arc on the right hand side. Credit : ...

York was the first researcher to find an isotope of hydrogen known as deuterium, which helped give researchers an ...

Researchers have modeled a concentration of fermionic dark matter that could explain the Milky Way’s central gravity without ...

Cosserat Microrotation. Neutrinos are “twists” that don’t stretch the lattice. Their mass is suppressed by the vacuum’s twist impedance (approx 0.05 eV). A natural, mechanical explanation for why ...

Most of the universe is made of dark matter and dark energy, yet scientists still don’t know what either one is. New ultra-sensitive detectors are being built to spot incredibly rare particle ...

Trillions of neutrinos—nearly massless, neutrally charged particles—pass through us every second, but we only acknowledge ...
