For decades, astronomers have treated dark matter as the invisible scaffolding of the cosmos, a mysterious substance that outweighs normal matter and shapes galaxies. A new wave of research is now ...

In a study published today in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, researchers at the University of Toronto reveal a theoretical breakthrough that may explain both the nature of ...

Two scientists think a double-Big-Bang scenario could explain dark matter and why we haven’t been able to detect it. Reading time 3 minutes When we think of the Big Bang, we think loud, hot, and ...

Quantum physics tells us about the properties and behaviors of atomic and subatomic particles. But scientists have long held the belief that the rules that govern the microscopic world should also be ...

From theory to signal: how dark matter distorts gravitational waves To turn this conceptual link into a measurable effect, researchers have begun to calculate how specific dark matter distributions ...

As we gaze ever farther into the outer reaches of the universe, we learn more about its origins and ultimate fate. There's one major missing piece of the puzzle: dark matter. Despite making up most of ...

Dark matter may be a quantum mechanical wave that literally holds galaxies together. Quantum mechanics is our best theory of the fundamental nature of reality, but it's usually only distinguishable ...

Quantum mechanics is both the most powerful theory physicists have ever devised and the most baffling. On the one hand, countless experiments have confirmed its predictions; the theory undergirds ...
