Understanding the nature of dark matter (DM) is the focus of extensive research at collider- and astrophysics-based experiments. The most well-known signature for DM production at the LHC is the so-ca...
The Large Underground Xenon (LUX) experiment located at Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in South Dakota, US, has released its latest results in the search for dark matter. Following the c...
The map shows galaxies being pulled towards each other by dark matter, while on much larger scales it reveals the effect of dark energy ripping the universe apart.
Astrophysics and cosmology have established that about 80% of the mass in the universe consists of dark matter. Dark matter and normal matter interact gravitationally, and they may also interact weakl...
Two research teams found that the gamma rays of the excess emission at the galactic centre are not distributed as expected from dark matter.
On 17 December, the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) successfully launched the DArk Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE) satellite from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China, markin...
In recent years, evidence for the existence of dark matter from astrophysical observations has become indisputable. Although the nature of dark matter remains unknown, many theoretically motivated can...
Our star has been the target of human investigation since the beginning of science. However, a plethora of observations are not yet understood. A good example is the unnaturally hot solar coron...
Nearly 400 days of data taken by the XENON collaboration were used to look for the telltale signature of dark matter, an event rate that varies periodically over the course of a year. The null re...
