An Auburn University study finds that magnetic fields can guide electrons in plasma much like traffic signals, giving ...

"WIMPs are still the leading candidate for dark matter, but billions of dollars of experiments have been done, only getting ...

Physicists have long relied on the idea that electrons behave like tiny particles zipping through materials, even though ...

"I wouldn't say primordial black holes were ever dismissed as dark matter candidates; they were ignored for a while though." When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

Researchers at TU Wien have discovered an unexpected new state of matter in which topological properties emerge even though ...

Physicists are eyeing charged gravitinos—ultra-heavy, stable particles from supergravity theory—as possible Dark Matter candidates. Unlike axions or WIMPs, these particles carry electric charge but ...

Physicists working at the CERN particle physics lab said they detected a slight but significant difference in how particles of matter and antimatter decay. By Kenneth Chang Understanding why matter ...

Supermassive black holes typically take billions of years to form. But the James Webb Space Telescope is finding them not that long after the Big Bang — before they should have had time to form. UCLA ...

In recent years, a curious hypothetical particle called the axion, invented to address challenging problems with the strong nuclear force, has emerged as a leading candidate to explain dark matter.

LIVERMORE, Calif. – Take a gold sample the size of the head of a push pin, shoot a laser through it, and suddenly more than 100 billion particles of anti-matter appear. The anti-matter, also known as ...
