For generations, astronomers have pondered the origins of globular clusters, which are among the universe’s oldest and ...

For centuries, scientists have puzzled over globular clusters, the dense star systems that orbit galaxies without dark matter ...

For centuries, astronomers have puzzled over the origins of one of the universe's oldest and densest stellar systems, known ...

Information could become the fifth state of matter alongside gas, plasma, liquid, and solid states. A scientist has proposed ...

Axions are today's most popular candidate for dark matter, and numerous experiments are trying to detect them in microwave cavities where the axion should rarely convert into an electromagnetic wave.

LONDON (Reuters) - A computer simulation showing the formation and evolution of a galaxy like the Milky Way points to where scientists should look to spot dark matter, international researchers ...

Joanna Thompson: This is Scientific American’s 60 second science. I’m Joanna Thompson. In 2018, a group of astronomers from Yale discovered something odd: two galaxies that had almost no dark matter.

In the 1980s and ’90s, when Carlos Frenk worked on some of the first theories of cold dark matter—“cold” refers to the invisible particles’ relatively slow speed—he thought the idea wouldn’t last very ...

If a new research paper’s theory is correct, then there should be a much higher population of very small, very luminous galaxies in the early universe. With everything we learn about the nature of ...

In new simulations, 'dark atoms' formed dark stars and could even trigger the formation of black holes. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it ...

This is interesting of course, but the article suffers from problems. Besides the missing article link, the linked spiral arm dynamical mass excess observations are not explained by dark matter as it ...

Physicists searching — unsuccessfully — for today's most favored candidate for dark matter, the axion, have been looking in the wrong place, according to a new supercomputer simulation of how axions ...
