The rest of the universe appears to be made of a mysterious, invisible substance called dark matter (25 percent) and a force that repels gravity known as dark energy (70 percent). Scientists have ...

Yet despite researchers’ best efforts over decades to work out the nature of this “dark matter” – to find some clue direct or indirect as to what it’s made of, or even make it in the lab ...

"It marks an exciting step forward in our understanding of dark matter and the dynamics of the Milky Way." A perplexing "break" in a stream of stars around the Milky Way could be the result of ...

Dark energy and dark matter refers to the unseen energy and matter components of the Universe. Dark matter is invisible, non-baryonic matter hypothesized to explain phenomena including ...

Detecting dark matter particles and understanding their underlying physics is a long-standing research goal for many researchers worldwide. Dark matter searches have been aimed at detecting different ...

Scientists call that dark matter, because it does not interact with light and is invisible. In the 1970s, American ...

Observing the interactions between dark matter and so-called "dark photons" during a period after the Big Bang called the "cosmic dawn" could help shed light on the universe's most mysterious and ...

Here’s how it works. Galaxies may be anchored to giant "dark stars" — clumps of invisible matter sitting at their cores, new research suggests. Although astronomers have an abundance of ...

Dark matter, predicted to account for most of the universe's mass, remains highly elusive. Physicists have been searching for various particles that could be promising dark matter candidates ...

Our current cosmological model—known as lambda cold dark matter, or ΛCDM—relies on hypothesized dark energy to explain the accelerating expansion of the universe. However, one competing ...

They suggested that this extra mass was made up of ‘dark matter’ - a form of matter with a strong 'negative pressure' Observations of the rotation of galaxies indicated that most of the mass ...

Meet the Dark Matter, the groundbreaking electric motor powering Koenigsegg’s new Gemera hypercar. Officially known as the Dark Matter Raxial Flux 6-phase E-motor, this revolutionary piece of ...
