By combining different kinds of observations, cosmologists have shown that what we see is more easily explained if neutrinos, ...
The world’s most sensitive dark matter detector still hasn’t found evidence of weakly interacting massive particles, or WIMPs, but the search continues. LZ’s central detector, the time projection ...
New research puts forward compelling new evidence that dark matter interacts with cosmic "ghost particles" called neutrinos.
Scientists are a step closer to solving one of the universe's biggest mysteries as new research finds evidence that two of ...
The scientists behind the MAGIS-100 experiment aim to use state-of-the-art lasers to shed light on ultralight dark matter.
One of the great mysteries of modern science is dark matter. We know dark matter exists thanks to its effects on other objects in the cosmos, but we have never been able to directly see it. And it s ...
Fusion power has long been sold as the technology that could light our cities with the same process that powers the stars.
A ghost is haunting our universe. This has been known in astronomy and cosmology for decades. Observations suggest that about 85% of all the matter in the universe is mysterious and invisible. These ...
Figuring out the nature of dark matter, the invisible substance that makes up most of the mass in our universe, is one of the greatest puzzles in physics. New results from the world’s most sensitive ...
Andrea Gallo Rosso is a member of the ALPHA collaboration. He receives funding from the Swedish Research Council. Several experiments have aimed to unveil what it’s made of, but despite decades of ...
The LZ's central detector in a surface lab clean room before delivery and installation underground. Located deep underground, the LZ (Lux-Zeplin) detector takes elaborate precautions to screen out ...
New results from the world’s most sensitive dark matter detector put the best-ever limits on particles called WIMPs, a leading candidate for what makes up our universe’s invisible mass. Figuring out ...
