Fusion reactors might help detect dark matter, suggests a study with contributions from a University of Cincinnati professor.

Reactors designed to produce energy from the fusion of atoms could have an unexpected scientific side benefit. An ...

A mysterious excess of far-ultraviolet light seen across the Milky Way could come from the annihilation of clumpy dark matter ...

By studying faint distortions in galaxy shapes across a vast region of sky, scientists probed the hidden structure of the universe. In the standard picture of the universe, nearly everything is hidden ...

What is the nature of dark matter? A new experiment led by Columbia University physics professors aims to find out.

With contributions from Brown faculty and students, the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment analyzed the largest dataset ever collected by a dark matter detector, and the results provide the strongest constraints ...

By studying tiny distortions in the shapes of distant galaxies, scientists mapped dark matter and dark energy across one of the largest sky surveys ever assembled. Their results back the standard ...

A professor at the University of Cincinnati and his colleagues have figured out something two of America's most famous ...

New supercomputer simulations hint that dark energy might be dynamic, not constant, subtly reshaping the Universe’s structure. The findings align with recent DESI observations, offering the strongest ...

Scientists search for "decaying" dark matter (DDM) because it offers unique signatures like specific X-ray or gamma-ray lines ...

Gravitational wave astronomy is starting to do more than confirm Einstein’s equations. It is turning into a precision tool ...

In the search to understand how the universe came to be, a new theory is rewriting the script. Instead of one massive, fiery birth like the Big Bang, this idea suggests the cosmos has been growing in ...
