Scientists have inched a step closer to solving an enduring mystery in physics — why the universe contains any matter at all — thanks to a newly combined analysis from two of the world's leading ...

Researchers, students and science-lovers across the world now have access to the design of the globally significant SABRE South dark matter experiment in the lead up to its installation in the Stawell ...

Physicists have forced light to behave like electrons trapped in a magnetic field, reproducing the quantum Hall effect with photons for the first time. The experiment, carried out on an optical fiber ...

The neutrino “fog” is beginning to materialize. Lightweight subatomic particles called neutrinos have begun elbowing their way into the data of experiments not designed to spot them. Two experiments, ...

New results from the world’s most sensitive dark matter detector put the best-ever limits on particles called WIMPs, a leading candidate for what makes up our universe’s invisible mass. Figuring out ...

AUSTIN (KXAN) — The most sensitive dark matter detector in the world is showing results in the hunt for the hypothetical particle. The results: they can’t find it. “If you think of the search for dark ...

Theresa Fruth works for the University of Sydney. Most of the matter in the universe is missing. Scientists believe around 85% of the matter in the cosmos is made of invisible dark matter, which has ...

The GAPS experiment, right, prepares to launch from Antarctica. The device will help search for rare cosmic antimatter. The project builds on years of preparation, the release said, including ...
