Dark matter was likely the starting ingredient for brewing up the very first galaxies in the universe. Shortly after the Big Bang, particles of dark matter would have clumped together in gravitational “halos,” pulling surrounding gas into their cores, which over time cooled and condensed into the first galaxies.| AZoQuantum
Stars serve as laboratories for the nuclear reactions that control their fundamental behavior within the vastness of the cosmos. A vital astronomical process called nucleosynthesis shapes the development of chemical elements within stars during their life cycle, dramatically affecting the universe's composition.| AZoQuantum
Modern imaging systems are no longer limited by the quality of the technology itself but rather by the fundamental laws of physics. However, the emerging field of quantum imaging offers a promising solution to overcome these limitations through subwavelength resolution, sub-shot-noise, and interaction-free imaging.| AZoQuantum
The universe is expanding, and it is doing so at an accelerating rate. However, lingering questions about universal expansion do remain. Assistant Professor of Theoretical Physics at the University of Geneva, Lucas Lombriser, has put forward an extraordinary suggestion.| AZoQuantum
We report results from searches for new physics with low-energy electronic recoil data recorded with the XENON1T detector. With an exposure of 0.65 t-y and an unprecedentedly low background rate of $76\pm2$ events/(t y keV) between 1 and 30 keV, the data enables sensitive searches for solar axions, an enhanced neutrino magnetic moment, and bosonic dark matter. An excess over known backgrounds is observed at low energies and most prominent between 2 and 3 keV. The solar axion model has a 3.4$...| arXiv.org
Over a century ago, Albert Einstein suggested a revolutionary theory of gravity that still astounds researchers with its accuracy.| AZoQuantum

An estimated 85% of the universe's constituents are assumed to be made up of dark matter, a hypothetical type of matter. Dark matter is entirely invisible. Since it doesn't emit any light or energy, ordinary sensors and detectors are unable to pick it up.| AZoQuantum
