Kavli IPMU researchers are part of an international team that has found dark matter dominating the halos of two supermassive ...

In a recent study published in The Astrophysical Journal, a team of scientists from the University of Tokyo, Peking ...

A perplexing "break" in a stream of stars around the Milky Way could be the result of dark matter — that is, if the mysterious cosmic stuff interacts with itself. The feature in question is in the ...

Europe's Euclid space telescope has detected a rare halo of bright light around a nearby galaxy, astronomers reported Monday.

This puzzling result makes sense if one assumes that the boundary stars are feeling the gravitational effects of an unseen mass—dark matter—in a halo around the galaxy. Dark matter could also ...

Now, a team from the University of California, Riverside, proposes that the cause of this feature is a sub-halo of self-interacting dark matter within the larger halo of dark matter that envelops ...

Another possibility is that dark matter is not WIMPs, but MACHOs. These Massive Astrophysical Compact Halo Objects are large bodies made of ordinary matter put together in unexpected ways that ...
