Scientists propose a modified cosmological model that challenges the existence of dark matter and dark energy.
Results for "dark matter"
Quantum tunneling may have ruled out a popular theory of dark matter
The composition of dark matter remains a mystery, but a new theory involving quantum tunneling may have eliminated some candidates.
Could dark matter be measured around black holes?
Dark matter could be aggregating around black holes, providing a possible means of indirectly measuring its properties.
Searching for dark matter in our solar system
Sending atomic and nuclear clocks into the inner reaches of our solar system could help scientists find proof of elusive dark matter.

Tweaking the rules of gravity via Modified Newtonian dynamics provides a possible alternative explanation for the behavior of galaxies
Dark matter could be composed of primordial black holes
A new theory for the origin and nature of dark matter resolves some inconsistencies between cosmological predictions and astronomical data.
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.
