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

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 ...

A new study of the Gobi Wall in the Gobi highland desert of Mongolia reveals a multifunctional role beyond defense; data from ...

For a while now, there has been a problematic mystery at the heart of the standard cosmological model. Although all observations support the expanding universe model, observations of the early period ...

In a new study published in Physical Review Letters, scientists have estimated a new lower bound on the mass of ultra-lightweight bosonic dark matter particles.

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?

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
