Dark matter is more than five times as abundant as all the visible matter in the universe. So why can't we see any of it?

The night sky may harbour invisible "boson stars," made from a form of matter that doesn't emit light. These stars could be ...

Have you ever wondered what mysteries lie hidden in the vast expanse of space? While stars, galaxies, and planets dominate ...

Only 5% of all visible matter in the universe is baryonic matter, while the remaining 95% consists of dark matter and dark energy.

These two properties of axions mean that they are exceptionally good at collapsing down to incredibly high densities, pulled ...

Dark matter remains one of the universe's most mysterious components, accounting for approximately 27% of its mass and energy. Despite its pervasive influence ...

The evidence for dark matter comes from astronomical and cosmological observations. Theoretical particle physics provides us with various well motivated candidates, such as weakly interacting massive ...

detected by instruments aboard the International Space Station (ISS), could have been produced by a new category of particles known as Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs). These WIMPs are ...

The findings are published in the journal Nature Communications. The interaction between the particles can be finely tuned by an external magnetic field. The experimental data were collected at ...

Unraveling the secret of dark matter could change our understanding of the universe completely. While its exact form is still unknown, one major hypothesis is that it is made up of weakly interacting ...
