It is neutrinos — small, chargeless, and nearly massless subatomic particles that either don’t interact with matter at all or ...

Research sheds new light on the spread of microplastics, revealing a surprising "hitchhiking" mechanism that could impact ...

For nearly 10 years we’ve been operating in a search mode, and any day we could make a discovery,” said Gray Rybka, a ...

The oceans play a big role in preventing the Earth from getting even hotter due to climate change. That's thanks to the ocean ...

The early universe started with what we call The Big Bang, which was a very hot environment which then expanded and cooled.

As if searching for dark matter isn't difficult enough already, physicists may have detected another hurdle known as a ...

A recent study has proposed a new mechanism for the formation of primordial black holes that could provide answers about dark matter.

Tiny grains from asteroid Ryugu are revealing clues to the magnetic forces that shaped the far reaches of the solar system over 4.6 billion years ago. The findings suggest the distal solar system ...

A decade after the discovery of the “amplituhedron,” physicists have excavated more of the timeless geometry underlying the ...

"If axion clouds, and thereby axions, are discovered, this would be a massive step toward solving the dark matter problem." Scientists think it's possible that shrouds of hypothetical particles ...
