Light-field camera particle detector PLATON — developed by ETH Zurich and EPFL — replaces millions of scintillator components ...

Dark matter is essentially the glue holding the universe together, according to Nicole Gugliucci, physics professor at St.

Dark matter appears to hold galaxies together, yet it has never shown itself directly. A new theory suggests the missing ...

For decades, scientists have tried to build a device even more precise than an atomic clock, which keeps time using electrons, the negatively charged particles that whiz around in an atom. Now, two ...

After decades of hunting, physicists still don’t know what makes up most of the universe’s matter. Now they need to cast a wider net. Underneath an Apennine massif, below the Jinping Mountains of ...

Astronomers have followed a faint, cosmic trail of gas to a third galaxy that has no dark matter. Two of those other galaxies, DF2 and DF4, were previously shown to lack dark matter — an invisible, ...

WASHINGTON, June 10 (Reuters) - Researchers working to solve the mysteries of neutrinos have unveiled the first scientific findings from a new underground facility in China - the most precise ...

Neutrino beams lack the precision that modern oscillation experiments demand. Laura Munteanu, Mathieu Perrin-Terrin and Stephen Dolan describe how neutrino tagging, proposed in 1979 and demonstrated ...

Physicist Melvin Vopson is trying to prove that information has a physical presence. If he can do that, it could lead to a fundamental shift in how we think about the universe and could even explain ...

Something invisible holds the universe intact. It outweighs everything you can see—every star, every gas cloud, every galaxy—by a factor of five. We call it dark matter, and for decades, the standard, ...
