What if I told you that while you can't see dark matter, maybe you can hear it? I know, I know, it sounds crazy…and it is crazy. But it's crazy enough that it just might work. It's a real life ...

"If you think about it like a radio, the search for dark matter is like tuning the dial to search for one particular radio station. Our method is like doing a scan of 100,000 radio stations." When you ...

We finally have a demonstration of a quantum effect that was predicted years ago, which is capable of making invisible matter. The process that the MIT researchers witnessed is called Pauli blocking.

The secret to directly detecting dark matter might be blowin’ in the wind. The mysterious substance continues to elude scientists even though it outweighs visible matter in the universe by about 8 to ...

The hunt for dark matter, the invisible substance shaping 27% of the universe’s mass, has reached a decisive moment, according to a leading astroparticle physicist. Leading the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) ...
