The search for dark matter has been largely unsuccessful so far. But now, scientists think they know where to look for it.

A new theory suggests fusion reactors could help scientists search for axions, mysterious particles that may explain dark ...

Searches for dark matter particles have come up empty so far, driving theorists to get more creative with their ideas.

A simple explanation of dark matter and antimatter, how they differ, how scientists study them, and why both are important to understanding the universe.

Physicists have discovered an exotic new state of matter that takes the form of a highly ordered crystal of subatomic particles. The new state of matter, called a "bosonic correlated insulator," could ...

Could future fusion reactors also serve as laboratories in which to manufacture dark matter? That’s the provocative question ...

Explore the elusive nature of dark matter, its indirect evidence, and the latest LUX-ZEPLIN detector advancements in the ...

Researchers from Ohio State University have come up with a novel method to detect dark matter based on existing meteor-detecting technology. Using ground-based radar to search for ionization trails, ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...

Information could become the fifth state of matter alongside gas, plasma, liquid, and solid states. A scientist has proposed an experiment involving particle annihilation that could establish that ...

The Standard Model of particles and interactions is remarkably successful for a theory everyone knows is missing big pieces. It accounts for the everyday stuff we know like protons, neutrons, ...
