A new computational breakthrough is giving scientists a clearer view into how dark matter structures evolve. Dark matter has remained one of the biggest mysteries in cosmology for almost a hundred ...

The new model is called WIFI, which stands for dark matter production during Warm Inflation via Freeze-In. According to a new model, dark matter particles (black dots) began forming as the universe ...

"WIMPs are still the leading candidate for dark matter, but billions of dollars of experiments have been done, only getting ...

Scientists have built detailed Milky Way simulations under strange new physical laws to probe dark matter, revealing how different versions of the universe might behave and helping us get closer to ...

New research puts forward compelling new evidence that dark matter interacts with cosmic "ghost particles" called neutrinos.

We have not been able to detect dark matter yet, even though there are many aspects of the universe that suggest the existence of invisible matter. In one new theory, it is possible that dark matter ...

Researchers suggest that dark matter might subtly color light red or blue as it passes through, revealing traces of its existence. Using a network-like model of particle connections, they argue that ...

Dark matter is one of nature's most confounding mysteries. It keeps particle physicists up at night and cosmologists glued to their supercomputer simulations. We know it's real because its mass ...

Now is a surreal time to be a dark matter researcher. Even as research funding is being cut by governments around the world, dark matter remains one of the biggest and most exciting open problems in ...
