Detecting dark matter, the elusive type of matter predicted to account for most of the universe's mass, has so far proved to ...

A team of international researchers has developed an innovative approach to uncover the secrets of dark matter in the cosmos. They are searching for dark matter using atomic clocks and ...

Dark energy and dark matter refers to the unseen energy and matter components of the Universe. Dark matter is invisible, non-baryonic matter hypothesized to explain phenomena including ...

“Dark energy” is a term scientists use to refer to whatever is causing the universe to expand faster over time. We don’t know exactly what dark energy is—no one has ever directly seen or measured ...

These multi-million-dollar, decade-long experiments might expose the answer to how dark energy has shaped our universe or how it may yet destroy the universe (or potentially reveal another!).

High-energy photons emitted during the nuclear ... proposal that these dark photons can decay into light dark matter, and this experiment has realized that process. While a similar experiment ...

Scientists then measure the energy from the CEvNS process to ... is observed by both the PandaX and XENON experiments. Both these dark matter experiments use liquid xenon detectors to look for ...

New research suggests that dark energy isn't needed to explain the acceleration in the expansion of the universe — instead suggesting giant voids in space are creating an illusion. When you ...
