Physicists are quietly entertaining one of the strangest ideas in modern cosmology: that the cosmos we see might be only half ...

A new theoretical study suggests fusion reactors could do more than generate energy, they might also produce particles linked to dark matter. Researchers at the University of Cincinnati say they have ...

'Dark matter' is an invisible substance that makes up for five-sixths of the universe, according to Gizmodo. Until now, ...

A professor at the University of Cincinnati and his colleagues have figured out something two of America's most famous fictional physicists couldn't: how to theoretically produce subatomic particles ...

Scientists analysing dark energy say the universe’s expansion may be slowing, raising the possibility gravity could ...

Studies suggest that the universe's expansion is decelerating — but what could that mean for the future of the cosmos?

Scientists at Rutgers and collaborators have traced the invisible dark matter scaffolding of the universe using over 100,000 Lyman-alpha emitting galaxies. By studying how these galaxies clustered ...

But the Big Bang theory predicts that about 5% of the universe's contents should be atoms made of protons, neutrons and ...

A new theory suggests fusion reactors could help scientists search for axions, mysterious particles that may explain dark ...

Astrophysicists have presumed for nearly a century that the universe will just keep expanding for all eternity, driven by an invisible force called dark energy. But new data suggest that this is ...

UC Santa Cruz physicist Stefano Profumo has put forward two imaginative but scientifically grounded theories that may help solve one of the biggest mysteries in physics: the origin of dark matter. In ...

Astronomers say NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope may have spotted the universe’s first “dark stars,” primordial bodies of hydrogen and helium that bear almost no resemblance to the nuclear ...
