An astrophysicist proposes a new model of the universe without dark matter and energy, but is his radical idea based in fact?| The Debrief
Closing in on the nature of dark matter, experiments conducted in an underground cavern help resolve one of the leading candidates.| The Debrief
Mines over matter: Neutrinos are the final frontier of high-energy physics. They have the strangest properties and are the hardest particles to detect (within the Standard Model). A deep underground mine in South Dakota, the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) hosts a host of experiments that are pushing the limits on what we know about our universe.| Galileo Unbound
The QROCODILE experiment sets world-leading limits on light dark matter, marking a breakthrough in the search for the unseen.| The Debrief
Physicists have floated numerous theories to explain what dark matter might be, but to date, no experiment has turned up compelling evidence to support any of them. An international team of...| UW News
Physicists have created a novel detector capable of probing dark matter particles at unprecedentedly low masses. About 80 percent of the universe’s mass is believed to be dark matter, yet the makeup and organization of its particles remain largely unknown, leaving physicists with fundamental ques| SciTechDaily
It sounds like science fiction to say there’s invisible, undetectable stuff all around us, and it doesn’t help that it has the spooky name of dark matter. But there’s plenty of evidence that this material is very real. So what exactly is dark matter? How do we know it’s there? And how are…| New Atlas
New data is overturning decades of confusion about a potential "conspiracy" between dark matter and stellar matter.| The Debrief
New research is placing dynamical constraints on primordial black holes (PBHs) as a potential dark matter candidate.| The Debrief
Today sees the launch of a new initiative between Galaxy Zoo (part of the Zooniverse conglomerate) and the Euclid Consortium which I am delighted to be able to promote on this blog. What follows th…| In the Dark
A new type of gravitational wave detector running in Western Australia has recorded two rare events that might be signals of dark matter or primordial black holes. These high-frequency gravitational waves are beyond the range of most detectors and have never been recorded before.| New Atlas
