Neutron stars with a penchant for extreme spinning could be churning out one of the most sought-after particles in the Universe.
New research suggests that the so-called clumpiness problem, which centers on the unexpectedly even distribution of matter on large scales throughout the Universe, may be a sign that dark matter is composed of hypothetical, ultra-light particles.
XENON1T data from 2017-2018 has revealed an unexpected excess of low-energy interactions with the xenon’s electrons, more than the Standard Model of particle physics would predict.
Scientists have proposed a new theory that combines some of the most mysterious phenomena in the Universe - black holes, gravitational waves, and axions - to solve one of the most confounding problems in modern physics.
In the search for the mysterious dark matter, physicists have used elaborate computer calculations to come up with an outline of the particles of this unknown form of matter.
