In the strange and fascinating world of quantum mechanics, particles have long been sorted into just two types: fermions and ...

Primordial black holes could inhabit the modern-day cosmos, making them responsible for the phenomenon of dark matter, according to new research.

Dark matter is hypothesized to outweigh "ordinary matter" in the universe by a factor of five. That means all the stuff we ...

Scientists from the Institute of Modern Physics (IMP) at the Chinese Academy of Sciences have made a breakthrough in ...

Primordial black holes are the earliest black holes thought to exist, and they vanished almost as fast as they came into being. As Stephen Hawking predicted, black holes don’t only draw particles in, ...

Collisions between ... particles in question would have about a thousandth of the mass of WIMPS, one of the first proposed ...

A long-elusive, hypothetical subatomic particle called the axion can be simulated and potentially detected in a type of thin material.

"We have the potential to detect particles lower in mass than we could before as well as exotic particles like those that may constitute dark matter ... used them in the Deep Space Optical ...

Charge-parity violation is thought to explain why there’s more matter than antimatter in the universe. Scientists just spotted it in a new place.
