An exotic type of dark matter could explain some of the characteristics of our galaxy’s central supermassive black hole, but ...

Using the Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers have discovered what seems to be a galaxy that is the most heavily dominated by ...

A study published in Nature Astronomy has found a nearly 3-sigma statistical preference for non-zero interactions between ...

Dark matter is so pervasive throughout galaxies that its presence explains the stability and motion of stars in systems such as the Milky Way. For example, current models indicate that our galaxy is ...

Astronomers discover galaxy CDG-2 that's 99% dark matter using Hubble, Euclid, and Subaru telescopes working together to detect this cosmic ghost 300 million light-years away.

According to researchers, approximately 99 percent of this galaxy's total mass is dark matter.

New research suggests that the heart of the Milky Way may be dominated by a dense clump of dark matter rather than the ...

Dark matter keeps getting blamed for the universe’s big patterns while staying stubbornly out of reach. You cannot see it, touch it, or capture it.

Researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory are helping to pave a path for the eventual discovery of dark matter. With new approaches to measurement in the quantum realm, ...

Dark matter is a type of matter that is predicted to make up most of the matter in the universe, yet it is very difficult to detect using conventional experimental techniques, as it does not emit, ...
