The image shows the predicted flux of antihelium-3 produced from dark matter (WIMPs) that annihilate producing these antinuclei. Each color represents the prediction for a different mass of dark ...

"WIMPs are particles that have been theorized but never observed, and they could be the ideal candidate for dark matter," explains Pedro De la Torre Luque, a physicist at the Institute of theoretical ...

Matter and antimatter should have completely wiped each other out eons ago, leaving the Universe a very empty place. Obviously that didn't happen. Experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) may ...

The universe's matter-antimatter asymmetry, where matter significantly outweighs antimatter despite their theoretically equal creation at the Big Bang, remains a major unsolved problem in physics.

Everything we see around us, from the ground beneath our feet to the most remote galaxies, is made of matter. For scientists, that has long posed a problem: According to physicists’ best current ...
