Besides particles like sterile neutrinos, axions and weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), a leading candidate for ...

And a Japanese research team hopes to resolve the mystery of dark matter by searching for primordial black holes: Incentives ...

This clever mechanism limits the total amount of massive dark matter in the universe, because only so much can escape the black holes before they evaporate completely. This evaporation process ...

However, the USTC researchers have revealed that dark matter halos hosting dwarf galaxies also exhibit halo bias, which is ...

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?

Ultrafine dark matter, millions of times lighter than electrons, could flow through the cosmos in waves. We might just have an easy way to check for tiny interactions between this dark matter and ...

Dark matter could be the result of fermions pushed into a warped fifth dimension. This theory builds on an idea first stated in 1999, but is unique in its findings. Dark matter makes up 75 percent ...

Dark matter makes up a large portion of the universe, but we've never seen it. Here's what we know, what it might be, and why it could change everything. More than 80% of the universe's matter is ...

When wading into the murky realm of theoretical physics, one of the more difficult concepts for scientists to explain is that of dark matter. It’s the invisible form of matter constantly eluding ...

A new paper suggests we may finally be able to uncover the identity of dark matter using the same technology that detects ripples in space-time known as gravitational waves. When you purchase ...

Dark matter is invisible. It's all around us. And we have no idea what it is. The universe is so much bigger than what people can see. Visible matter — which makes up the things you can see like ...
