Detecting ultralight dark matter particles using supermassive black holes
Is it time to start looking for alternatives to WIMPs?
Self-interacting inflaton particles may reshape our picture of the early universe
Subtle inflaton interactions may reshape our understanding of cosmic inflation, altering predictions about dark matter, black holes, and gravitational waves.
A new type of dark matter could explain mysterious radiation from the Milky Way’s core
Dark matter could be composed of much lighter particles, with masses roughly ten times smaller than that of a proton.
CERN scientists search for new physics in unusual energy patterns linked to hidden particles
Researchers at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider explore subtle energy signals to search for new physics beyond the Standard Model.
Swirling clouds of axions around neutron stars could help scientists detect dark matter
Dark matter may be gathering in dense clouds around neutron stars, potentially making it easier to observe it from Earth.
Neutron stars could be the gateway to dark matter
Could neutron stars hold the key to observing dark matter? Researchers believe studying them might one day reveal this elusive substance.
Dark matter could be lurking in Jupiter’s atmosphere
Astronomers propose that an infrared glow observed in Jupiter’s atmosphere may be dark matter particles colliding.
Matter of science: Dialectics and the laws of nature
In this third and final article in a series on philosophy and science, we look at how modern science shows the validity of dialectical processes and how this can help guide science.
Saving a dark matter theory from a quantum tunneling flaw
Tiny interactions between dark matter particles may resolve discrepancies between theory and astronomical observations caused by quantum tunneling.
