Scientists have taken another major step toward creating stable quantum computers. Using a specialized quantum computer chip ...

We can't see dark matter directly, so studying it pushes the boundaries of our creativity as scientists. How exciting, says ...

More than 100 years after its existence was predicted, scientists report that they have, for the first time, seen dark matter ...

Research published Tuesday by a Japanese astrophysicist says gamma rays may have been generated by the collision of dark ...

Physicists using near-absolute-zero detectors have reached unprecedented sensitivity in the hunt for light dark matter. A ...

The new study reports the detection of a mysterious halo-like glow of gamma rays around the Milky Way, peaking sharply at ...

Scientists have detected an unusual gamma-ray halo around our Milky Way galaxy. This signal, observed by NASA's Fermi ...

NASA’s Fermi telescope has detected a 20-GeV gamma-ray halo around the Milky Way’s center that may match dark-matter annihilation.

Dark matter is one of the great enigmas of the universe and, in efforts to determine its existence and nature, a new study ...

What was once the leading explanation for dark matter may have simply been underestimating the mass of the particles that ...

Readers of this paper will probably need no reminder that most of the universe is missing. The atoms and light you see—from people to planets, stars and galaxies—make up just 5% of the universe. The ...

Fish school, insects swarm and birds fly in murmurations. Now, new research finds that on the most basic level, this kind of group behavior forms a new kind of active matter, called a swirlonic state.
