Tohoku University researchers have found a way to make quantum sensors more sensitive by connecting superconducting qubits in ...

Detecting dark matter—the mysterious substance that holds galaxies together—is one of the greatest unsolved problems in ...

Physicists chilled a sugar crystals then used them to search for dark matter. This new project is called SWEET.

A new theoretical study proposes that light from distant galaxies could be slightly shifted in color by interactions with ...

The aptly named SWEET project was developed by a team of researchers to use sugar crystals for detecting hypothetical light ...

Dark matter has two central properties: it has mass like regular matter, and unlike regular matter, it reacts weakly or not at all with light. Neutrinos satisfy these two criteria, but neutrinos move ...

A gamma ray glow at our galaxy’s center has puzzled scientists for almost two decades. New computer simulations back the ...

As a kid, did you ever play that game Guess Who? If you haven't, it's actually kinda fun. You have two players, each with a board in front of them. On the board are a bunch of flip cards with ...

New simulations tilt the scales for competing theories about excess gamma ray light at the center of the galaxy ...

Such an exponential expansion may seem minor, but it is equivalent to a grape in the palm of your hand swelling to become ...

For over a decade, a dim but persistent glow near the center of the Milky Way has confused astronomers. This mysterious ...

Scientists may be coming closer to confirming the existence of dark matter - the invisible stuff thought to make up more than ...
