暗光子作为暗物质的可能组成部分，对宇宙学的研究具有重要意义。暗物质占据了宇宙质量的大部分，但由于它与光和其他电磁波几乎不相互作用，因此无法直接观测。暗光子的研究有助于我们更好地理解暗物质的性质以及它如何影响宇宙的演化。

"Dark photon, dark matter interactions could have produced oscillations — similar to sound waves — that stopped shortly after the Big Bang." While the fact that dark matter doesn't interact ...

Dark matter is an elusive type of matter that does not emit, absorb or reflect light and is thus impossible to detect using ...

Berkeley Lab nanoparticle specialist Emory Chan says the new nanoparticles—which at tens of nanometers across are about the size of many features on modern microchips—could provide a similar switching ...

For decades, people have been trying to directly detect dark matter: the missing mass in our universe. Now, there's a new, ...

Researchers have developed a new optical computing material from photon avalanching nanoparticles. A research team co-led by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab), Columbia University, ...
