Astronomers discover galaxy CDG-2 that's 99% dark matter using Hubble, Euclid, and Subaru telescopes working together to detect this cosmic ghost 300 million light-years away.

Using data from the Hubble Space Telescope, ESA’s Euclid space observatory, and Hawaii’s Subaru Telescope, the researchers discovered faint light emitting around the clusters. That light was clear ...

Dark matter is not visible, it can only be detected indirectly through interaction with visible matter. Sugar, for example.

Researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory are helping to pave a path for the eventual discovery of dark matter. With new approaches to measurement in the quantum realm, ...

About 85 percent of the matter in the universe is thought to be dark matter, yet there is still no confirmed direct detection of any dark matter particle. Ground-based detectors, space-based ...

CRESST is an experiment designed for light WIMPs (weakly interacting massive particles), which are dark matter particles. The detection principle is based on a behavior familiar from billiard: when a ...

Figure.1 illustrates the conceptual mechanism of dark-photon production via dark bremsstrahlung and its subsequent decay into invisible dark matter, forming the experimental basis for DarkSHINE, which ...

Dark matter remains one of science's greatest mysteries, possibly making up 85% of all matter in the universe. Despite decades of research, its exact nature is unknown. One leading candidate to ...

WIMPs (weakly interacting massive particles) are one of the most serious contenders for dark matter—the “missing” mass supposedly constituting 85% of our universe. Given its elusiveness, dark matter ...

Now physicists from the University of Washington are taking a big swing at answering that question. All matter exerts gravitational force. The more mass the object has, the greater the force. Yet, a ...

Dark matter remains one of the most compelling mysteries in modern astrophysics and particle physics. Despite its overwhelming gravitational influence on cosmic structures, its particle nature eludes ...
